Ronda Rousey was defeated by Liv Morgan at SummerSlam in one of the most important matches of her fighting career, and she did not take it well.
She believed that referee Dan Engler made a questionable call that led to her loss in the title match, so she seized his arm and threw him over her shoulder, sending him to the floor. The 35-year-old pinned him down as he struggled until another official put an end to the incident.

Ronda Rousey fined and suspended
The WWE released a statement after ‘Rowdy’ Rousey’s outburst.
“Following her attack on referee Dan Engler at SummerSlam, Ronda Rousey has been fined an undisclosed amount and will be suspended,” according to the WWE website.
“An irate Rousey attacked the official after her SmackDown Women’s Title Match, claiming he missed Liv Morgan tapping out to the Armbar while he counted the pinfall.”
The Olympic medal winner took to Instagram to express her dissatisfaction over what she perceives to be favoritism in the wrestling promotion.
“Hey @wwe if you guys could stop screwing me to put over your golden girls at every major ppv that’d be greaaaaaat,” she wrote.
