As Ronda Rousey prepares for another big match at WrestleMania 35, reports continue to surface as to when her last appearance will be before the "Baddest Woman on the Planet" goes on hiatus.
According to Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Radio (h/t Cageside Seats), Rousey's final WWE appearance is slated for the day after WrestleMania 35, which would be the Apr. 8 episode of Monday Night Raw.
Meltzer was first to report that Rousey was set to leave the WWE after WrestleMania. Fans and other pundits were unsure if it meant a permanent departure or just a leave of absence.
But in January, WWE told TMZ Sports in a statement that Rousey is signed until Apr. 10, 2021. Amid rumors that Rousey wants to start a family with husband Travis Browne, WWE added in the statement that it's a "private matter" for the former Raw Women's Champion.
Rousey is set to defend her Raw Women's Championship against Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania 35. However, Becky Lynch is set to face Charlotte at this Sunday's Fastlane pay-per-view. If "The Man" wins, she'll be added to the Rousey-Flair bout at WrestleMania.

With Rousey set to leave for the WWE after 'Mania, that means it's essentially a guarantee that either Lynch or Flair will win the match. It obviously wouldn't make sense to have a superstar hold onto the championship while they go on hiatus.
Interestingly, Felix Upton of Ringside News reported last month that Rousey will be going on a break, but WWE is hoping she'll return by the time Survivor Series rolls around in November. If that is the current plan in place, Rousey's absence will last just over half a year.
What This Means
WWE fans will only have one more month of "Rowdy" Ronda Rousey before she goes on hiatus, meaning the Lynch-Flair feud will dominate the women's division on Monday Night Raw. Rousey just pulled off a successful heel turn as the fans continue to side completely with Lynch, but we won't see the Raw Women's Champion perform this role for long.
