Furious Ronda Rousey attacks referee after suffering controversial defeat

Ronda Rousey lost her temper following the conclusion of her championship match with Liv Morgan at SummerSlam. The ‘Baddest woman on the Planet’ aimed to reclaim the SmackDown women’s title from the 28-year-old inside the breath-taking Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Tennessee.

After an initial onslaught from Rousey, Morgan rallied to deliver a codebreaker, but as she went for her Oblivion finishing move, Rousey caught her and tried to cinch in the Armbar. Morgan avoided the submission with one of her own, but Rousey swiftly escaped the hold to lock in the Armbar in the centre of the ring.

Rousey continued to inflict damage on Morgan’s arm, forcing the trainer to check on the champion, but the resilient Morgan did not allow the official to stop the match and battled on. Rousey continued to attack the arm, but as she locked in another Armbar, Morgan stood up to plant Rousey’s shoulders to the mat for the three-count.
