Ronda Rousey sat down with ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne on Sunday to discuss her WWE Royal Rumble debut, her future with the company. Below is highlights from the interview:
When asked if she will just pop up at big WWE events, Rousey says WWE is her life now as the company has priority when it comes to her time for the next few years. She says this is not a smash & grab or a publicity stunt. When she first met with Triple H she told him that there are other things she can do to make way more money but she won’t enjoy them as much. Rousey says money only gets you the freedom to choose how you spend your time and who you spend it with, and she doesn’t want to always be making money for the sake of just making money.
Rousey says she just wanted to be a part of WWE and get the most out of her life, her opportunities, and she doesn’t think trying to make the most amount of money each day is the best thing for her happiness. Rousey says she wants to wrestle, be a part of WWE and she wants the fans to respect her.
