Namajunas posted on Instagram that she would like to face off against recent UFC on FOX 22 winner Michelle Waterson. Like Waterson, Namajunas holds a submission win over Paige VanZant.

Namajunas and Waterson both competed under the Invicta FC banner before the UFC created the strawweight division. Namajunas competed on The Ultimate Fighter, finishing as a runner-up, while Waterson waited to sign with the promotion after her run as Invicta FC atomweight champion ended.
The 24-year-old Namajunas (5-3) was defeated by Karolina Kowalkiewicz via split decision in a title-eliminator this past July, snapping her three-fight win streak. Waterson (14-4), who turns 31 in January, has won each of her two UFC appearances.
Rose Namajunas has her next opponent in mind.
