Ronda Rousey
Manage episode 435499247 series 2588118
UFC, WWE, and Judo champion, multi-ESPY award-winner, and Hollywood actress Ronda Rousey has stepped out of the ring and into the world of comics with her debut graphic novel EXPECTING THE UNEXPECTED! Ronda is best known for her tenure in Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) and WWE. She was the first American woman to win an Olympic medal in judo by winning bronze at the 2008 Summer Olympics. Rousey began her mixed martial arts (MMA) career with King of the Cage in 2011. She soon joined Strikeforce, becoming their last Women's Bantamweight Champion until its acquisition by UFC. Rousey was part of the company's first female fight at UFC 157. Rousey began a career in professional wrestling in 2018, signing with WWE, and debuted at WrestleMania 34. She won the Raw Women's Championship at that year's SummerSlam, and headlined WWE's only all-women's pay-per-view Evolution, in which she defended the title. Rousey is the only woman to be the champion in both the UFC and WWE as well as the only woman to headline a pay-per-view event in both companies. She was voted the best female athlete of all time in a 2015 ESPN fan poll, and Fox Sports described her as "one of the defining athletes of the 21st century.” These are just a few of Ronda Rousey’s accomplishments as an inspiring female American athlete.
