A stipulation has been added to a grudge match at WWE SummerSlam.

Shayna Baszler vs. Ronda Rousey had already been announced for WWE SummerSlam last week but it was revealed during the July 31 edition of Monday Night Raw that the two former friends would go one-on-one in an MMA Rules Match. The exact set-up for the match is unknown, such as if Baszler and Rousey will face off inside an octagon, which is used for UFC fights.

Baszler and Rousey had previously been tag team partners, holding the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships together, until Baszler turned on her fellow Four Horsewoman of MMA at Money in the Bank on July 1. The shared history between Baszler and Rousey was addressed on this week's Raw, with Baszler stating that Rousey's daughter - her goddaughter - won't be able to forgive her for what happens at SummerSlam.

Other matches announced for SummerSlam include Jey Uso vs. Roman Reigns in a Tribal Combat Match, Ricochet vs. Logan Paul, and a Slim Jim Battle Royal.
