“I don’t know (if I would return). I think it's as likely as me returning to the Olympics in judo. Nobody demanded that I submit a letter of resignation for judo, and I don't think the same is necessary for fighting. I'm just doing what I like, and WWE is what I like right now," Rousey said. talk show “The Ellen Show”, on the ABC channel, in the United States.

WWE debut

Still during the program, Ronda commented on her WWE debut, scheduled for April 8th at WrestleMania 34. The blonde couldn't hide her excitement about getting into the ring and revealed nervousness about her debut.

“I am extremely excited. I'm nervous, but not nervous like the Olympics. The worst thing that could happen is that I look stupid, which isn't the worst thing that could happen. I can't remember the last time I was this excited about something,” she finished.
