Despite the devastating losses she accrued at the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), Ronda Rousey is still interested in the fight game. However, it is quite possible that she will not come back as a fighter for the UFC anytime soon. She is in fact dipping her toes in the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) arena. Though no solid confirmations have been made yet, does joining the WWE effectively end her UFC career?
In a report by Forbes, Rousey has already started training for the WWE, which is something that many sports fans and analysts have suspected would happen following her loss to Amanda Nunes in UFC 207. The WWE run things a little bit differently in their side of the world, and could prove to be more profitable and more practical for Rousey.
In fact, What Culture has already speculated that Rousey is being geared for a major role in next year's major WWE event, WrestleMania. The news has yet to be officially confirmed, but the event is set to take place on April 8 at the Mercedes Benz Superdome in New Orleans. The possibilities for Rousey to make her entrance are endless, especially since she has been involved in some spats with some personalities in WWE in the past.
The former UFC female champion had previously announced that she plans on starting a family with her husband, Travis Browne; the WWE could potentially be a better career choice for her in that regard. In fact, she may be toning down her aggression a lot more than fans initially thought. According to TMZ, she is now the executive producer of a document series titled "Why We Fight," which tells the stories of different fighters in the fight game.
No statements were made yet regarding Rousey's career in mixed martial arts. However, it is safe to assume that when Rousey is once again ready for the intensity that the UFC has, she will be welcomed with open arms. Sadly, MMA fans doubt that she will ever come back into the Octagon ever again.
