Everybody knows Ronda Rousey as one of the most prolific strikers in mixed martial arts prior to the start of her career as a professional wrestler. In her MMA career, Rousey has a professional record of 12-2. Her final fight with Amanda Nunes lasted only 48 seconds as Nunes dominated Rousey with a flurry of punches that subsequently ended her MMA career. Fortunately, Rousey was able to find another outlet in combat sports via the WWE.
From 2014-2017, Rousey would make sporadic appearances on the world's largest wrestling platform and in 2017 she would sign a full-time contract with the company. Rousey made her in-ring debut at WrestleMania 34 in March 2018 and just months later she would become the Raw Women's Champion for the first time. Since then, Ronda Rousey has been drawing crowds as a major roster WWE personality for pay-per-view events. In time we'll see if the former striker will continue her reign in the realm of professional wrestling. For now, it's too early to tell.
