UFC: Ronda Rousey: Ronda Rousey, the former UFC and WWE superstar, has been the subject of rumors suggesting that she may consider a return to the octagon. However, recent reports suggest that the rumors are unfounded, and Rousey has no plans to return to UFC. Rousey recently lost her WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship title after her tag partner and friend, Shayna Baszler, turned on her at Money in the Bank. This has led to speculation that Rousey may not be long for WWE and could be considering a return to UFC.
Ronda Rousey Not Returning to UFC
Bantamweight Chelsea Chandler added fuel to the rumors by stating that she had heard Rousey was coming back. However, MMA reporter Ariel Helwani tweeted that there is no truth to the rumors and that Rousey is not considering a UFC comeback.
Rousey’s last UFC fight was in December 2016, where she lost to Amanda Nunes by TKO in just 48 seconds. Since then, she has pursued a career in professional wrestling, where she recently had a storyline feud with her former tag partner Baszler.
While a return to the UFC would undoubtedly be a lucrative opportunity, Rousey’s age and time away from competition make it unlikely. She is now 36 years old and hasn’t competed in the Octagon for almost five years. Moreover, Rousey’s success in MMA has already cemented her legacy in the sport, making a return to UFC unnecessary.
Despite the disappointment among some MMA fans who were hoping for Rousey’s return, they can still look forward to seeing her in the WWE and potentially other entertainment ventures. Rousey has proven to be a versatile and talented performer, and her future career moves are sure to attract significant interest among fans.
