Ronda Rousey set to join the WWE

What had been rumoured for months now appears close to becoming a reality: Ronda Rousey is set to join the WWE.

Rousey, who hasn't had an MMA fight since December 2016, has offered indications that she was interested in the WWE.

Reports emerged in August that she was learning pro wrestling moves, and she was spotted at the time speaking with WWE executive Triple H at a taping for an all‑female tournament.

Rousey has long been known as a big fan of pro wrestling, even as she rocketed to fame as an Olympic bronze medallist in judo and then became a dominant force in MMA.

MMA Weekly reported that, as production on that film is expected to last until February, Rousey would not be a full‑time member of WWE but would participate in some of the company's most high‑profile events over the coming year. That will likely include an appearance at WrestleMania 34 in April.
