During a recent interview with Rolling Stone, UFC Women’s Bantamweight
Champion Ronda Rousey was asked if she’s ready for WWE.
Rousey said: “I’m ready. I’ve seen NXT. I remember Nattie and Charlotte’s match for the title. Nattie was actually training with the original Four Horsewomen to get ready for that fight. I have so many obligations, but I really want to find a way to make it happen. I’m a huge fan wrestling, and I would like to see the position of women in the sport continue to improve, so if I can be a part of it, great.”
Rousey also talked about WWE’s decision to focus more on the Divas division:
“I’m really encouraged by the progress I’ve see with what they’re doing with the women in WWE, but I feel like there’s a lot more than can be done. They’re doing some of it now, too. I’m really excited that they’ve brought up all these great women from NXT, who are all different from the normal mold they would use for the Divas division. I’m not going to take credit for anything, but I definitely want to be part of it as much as I can.”
WWE Divas Champion Charlotte responded on Twitter to Rousey’s Rolling Stone interview:
