Former UFC and WWE star Ronda Rousey took a jab at Joe Rogan during a recent podcast interview with comedian Bert Kreischer, touching on her potential return to mixed martial arts. The conversation took place during an episode of the ‘Bertcast Podcast,’ where Kreischer humorously proposed hypothetical price points for her comeback. Rousey responded with a mixture of humor and defiance, stating she has everything she needs in her life. The discussion also included a playful exchange about her combat skills versus Rogan’s expertise, with Rousey humorously suggesting she would beat up Kreischer in front of his house.
Rouse and Rogan’s relationship appears to have soured towards the end of her UFC tenure following her losses to Amanda Nunes and Holly Holm. She claimed in an interview last year that Rogan and others had turned against her. The comments have sparked a wave of interest in their dynamic, with fans discussing the nature of their professional relationship. While the remarks were lighthearted, they have intensified public interest in the ongoing tensions between Rousey and Rogan, who have been vocal about their differing views on combat sports and entertainment.
Rousey’s career has been marked by both accolades and controversies. She won an Olympic bronze medal in judo in 2008 before transitioning to MMA, where she became the women’s bantamweight champion and made six title defenses. She was inducted into the UFC Hall of Fame in 2018. In WWE, she was a three-time women’s champion and a tag team champion before departing from the company. Her recent comments on Rogan have reignited interest in her career and the dynamics of her past interactions within the sports and entertainment industries.
