Ronda Rousey Tosses Triple H Through a Table at WWE Elimination Chamber (VIDEO)
It’s not everyday you get to toss your boss through a table but that’s exactly what Ronda Rousey did on Sunday night.
The former UFC women’s bantamweight champion appeared at WWE Elimination Chamber in Las Vegas for her official “contract signing”, which was really all part of the storyline to introduce her to the professional wrestling audience.
The entire scenario was set up to help build Rousey towards her first big match in WWE, which will take place at WrestleMania in April.

After being showered with compliments, Rousey was told the “real story” from Olympic gold medalist Kurt Angle who revealed that Paul “Triple H” Levesque and his wife Stephanie McMahon only signed her so they could get revenge for what she did to them at WrestleMania three years ago.
Rousey’s first real appearance in WWE took place at WrestleMania 31 where she got involved in a storyline alongside Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson with Triple H and Stephanie McMahon.
The segment ended with Rousey throwing Triple H through a table before Stephanie slapped her in the face and then fled the ring before she could receive any retribution. Rousey signed her contract and then left the ring as she officially kicks off her WWE career.

It’s likely Rousey’s first match will be a mixed tag team scenario where she will partner with Kurt Angle against Triple H and Stephanie at WrestleMania.
One more note — UFC light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier, former heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez, Michael Chiesa and Rousey’s husband Travis Browne were all sitting front row to cheer her on during the segment.
