Yeah, about as smart as that whole Tensai vs. Yoshi Tatsu thing would have been. Oh, you don't remember what I'm talking about? Exactly. What had the potential to possibly be a male Gail Kim vs. Awesome Kong, or even a slew of Japanese guys ganging up on the giant weaboo for his borderline racist portrayal and possibly homosexual domestic abuse against Sakimoto (what, you don't remember him, either?), they instead turned that into a one-off, throwaway match where Tatsu got squashed for *daring* to try to be the hero.

It was something that basically wrote itself and could have AT LEAST lasted to a PPV, but because it had fuck all to do with Cena overcoming any odds, it was wasted in a single segment on a random RAW and it was never mentoned again.

They *could* do something about Darria Barranato (I don't know why I remember that mouthful of a name, but can never remember what her name is now and it was ages ago when she fell into the name generator. Weird.), but that would take too much effort when they could just sweep it under the rug and concentrate on Rousey.

Hell, another thing that writes itself is Rousey/Bazzler, BUT personally, I believe history will repeat itself, and it will be Shamrock and Severn all over again - where both people are in the same place at the same time, but nothing is EVER done with it when it was the most obvious and easiest road to go down.

And the worst thing, to me, is that she likely got that gimmick in the first place to be a "knockoff" of an MMA type girl... then when they got access to the "real deal", they just threw that toy out the window to move to the new shiny instead of helping her not to languish.
