Former UFC bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey, is officially the first ever UFC fighter to make the full-time crossover into the world of pro-wrestling.
The avid and outspoken pro-wrestling fan lost her UFC world title in brutal fashion to Holly Holm, then repeated that performance in an attempt to regain her belt against Amanda Nunes.
Ronda has been sitting idle on the sidelines for over a year, but apparently she’s been working on a new sport and a new craft to capitalize on her massive star power.
Ronda will now be a full-time athlete under the WWE banner, and she made her debut last night at the Royal Rumble.
Here’s the full replay:
Here’s some extra’s from the night:
