Report: FOX wants Rousey on 'SmackDown' roster

Ronda Rousey could be leaving "Raw" for "SmackDown."

FOX wants the current Raw Women's Champion on the SmackDown roster when "SmackDown Live" switches to its network in 2019, according to a report by Justin LaBar of Wrestling Inc.

WWE agreed to a five-year, $1-billion broadcast deal earlier this year to move "SmackDown" from USA Network to FOX. The deal is expected to take effect in October 2019.

LaBar also reports FOX is looking to take "SmackDown" in a more sports-oriented direction and that Rousey would be a key figure in cross-promotional campaigns between WWE and the network's other programs.
