Ronda Rousey recently appeared on Steve-O's "Wild Ride" podcast where she revealed that he had a lot of fun working with other female WWE superstars. She said her brief WWE career was a blast and she enjoyed every day of it.
However, the thing Ronda Rousey didn’t like was the response she received from the fans when she expressed the desire to work part-time in WWE. Ronda Rousey said this was one of the reasons which led to her departure. Ronda Rousey said she will spend the majority of her time with the people who truly appreciate her like her family as opposed to the "ungrateful" fans.
When asked if she would like to return to WWE as a full-timer, Ronda Rousey said a resounding ‘NO’. Ronda Rousey said the WWE lifestyle isn’t for her because WWE superstars have to travel 200 days a year. Rousey said she would think about returning as a part-timer because she wants to spend more time with her family.
