Why People Are Laughing At Ronda Rousey's Failure 

You know you screwed up when people favor Logan Paul over you

She didnt have to work for anything in WWE. Every other hard working women were shut down just because Ronda was thrown in due to her popularity, and when the fans got tired, she cried like a baby.

Interviewer: How to do you want to be remembered Fedor emilianenko: Just a normal person

She didn’t work for anything in the WWE, then hated on the fans when they called her out for being green.

Even the WWE turned against her. They made her a big push but her ungratefulness made every Wrestling fam turned against her.

Refusing to touch gloves with an opponent who was nothing but gracious and respectful - that told me *everything* I needed to know right there.

Her work ethic is legendary. It takes a lot of work to be that unlikable.

Her angry look before fights was that of a 3 year old girl who was told to stop doing whatever she was doing to misbehave. Without the cute part.

ronda rousey became the amy schumer of mma and wrestling

“I had a bad mouth guard , I fell down some stairs, and my dog stepped on a bee 😢”

Note to self, keep yourself humble even during moments of success

I once tried to wrestle for 5 minutes and quickly discovered that I was not anywhere near the level of WWE folks. Since then I have a great respect for them.

"Pro wrestling is fake" NO. FUCKING. SHIT. THAT IS THE FUCKING POINT!!!!!!

See there's the problem, she's crying about hitting rock bottom when the truth is she was brought back to earth with the rest of us

If Ronda Rousey was the trophy for finishing a race, I would walk backwards ...

Ronda Rousey's 2024 net worth is estimated at $14 million, wish I could fail like that.

That Holm KO is one of my all time favorites.

South Park needs to make an episode about her where she takes a huge hit to her ego over losing scripted WWE matches lol

"When you fail to respect success, success is unlikely to show you respect in return."

At the end of the day, your character outweighs your accomplishments. People don't care if you ruled the world. If you can't respect another person the way you want to be respected, you are nothing.

She lost basically all of her marketability by being so insufferable and rude. It’s actually impressive how she managed to fall so hard.

Ronda picked the best theme song for herself, Joan Jett Bad Reputation. She really don't give a damn about her bad reputation.

The face pummeling Nunes gave Rousey is one of the most satisfying moments of schadenfreude in sports history. It's almost like a cartoon, with Nintendo sound effects, whistling birds circling her dazed head, her face bouncing back and forth like a pinball jiggling between bumpers. Karmic perfection.

This was just amazing to watch everyone remembers this takedown .She was humiliated yet refused to improve .Joe Rogan did tell everyone she was the best striker in the world so he didn't help .

I loved the irony of the fact that she called wrestling fake (which 99.9% of wrestling fans are acutely aware of), yet threw a very real temper tantrum when the fans started to boo her

Usually a defeat like Rousey’s against Holm, makes you humble and helps you build character. Not Rousey. She didn’t learn anything from it. TWICE!

2:20 - You nailed it. Bethe Correia had the perfect style for Rhonda, and when Rhonda took her out, it went entirely to her head (not that her head wasn't big before) but she got in a single good punch and good knee to a BJJ specialist made her think she was a great striker. One thing you didn't point out is after losing to Holm, Rousey supposedly worked on her boxing. But when she fought Nunes it was painfully clear her boxing skills were absolutely horrible, she actually looked worse than in the lose to Holm. She looked like they just pulled some random person from the audience her boxing looked so bad.

She was never worthy of the Rodney Piper bit. She didn't have the mouth for it.

It's even more painful for her that Amanda Nunes became the best female fighter in UFC history and she's not even remembered. Colby Covington said she was ruining WWE for UFC fighters who wanted to sign to pro wrestling... and he was right.

There's a huge difference between beating up your significant other and beating a standing heavyweight champion. How she didn't think about that, I have no idea.

Ronda has issues. Anyway, she's financially independent. She has $14 million. Work is optional for her.

If a man in the UFC beat his girlfriend he'd never get out of prison. Hold women accountable.

WWE strapped a rocket to her back and pushed her to the moon, and she still couldn't get over long term. Sounds like a her problem

I’m honestly really impressed by her ability to make MMA fans dislike her even more, 8 years later.

Bit of context for her last UFC fight. Agree it was the worst thing that happened because she thought she was a boxer (hard not to when RING puts you on the cover) and not a Ronda fan, just an MMA fan. Her opponent mocked the Ronda’s dad’s suicide and that Ronda admitted to crying after losing out on the gold medal (from reading Ronda’s first book, not me, her opponent did). Ronda says “don’t cry” after the KO because that’s what Bethe screamed at her during the weigh ins. It was the holm fight where everything collapsed

Ellen agreeing with Ronda about the 3 title fights in 9 months “that’s a lot” like she knows wtf she’s talking about 😂

Hitting your spouse REGARDLESS OF GENDER is an instant "lose all respect" move. Weird how that's treated almost like a byline, people hate her more for making fun of WWE than for actual domestic violence.

8:43 > Joins company praised for its stage combat > Complains that the combat is staged > Is confused why her complaints are poorly received

My own coach used her as an example to teach us why if you can't strike, you can't fight.

RR was actually the one that got me into watching MMA when she was on her streak in the ufc.. I didn't mind the arrogance when she was backing it up.. I was sad to see her lose and its even sadder what's happened since.. If she'd have just bowed out after the Nunes battering, been gracious in defeat and grateful for the run she'd had, fans would have respected it. As it is she's basically made a fool of herself.

Ronda getting booed in the WWE is great because that doesn’t even kill your career, Edge got booed in ‘04 when he was supposed to be a babyface and he turned that into easy money. Ronda got booed and instead of turning it into money she cried about it lol. Edit: What’s funny is Brock was a real beast in the UFC ring and he respects the pro wrestling profession which is why people respected him, no one respects people who don’t respect the profession.

As someone who followed her MMA career and WWE career I can tell you straight up she couldn’t take criticism and losses. When she lost to Holly Holm she thought about committing suicide after losing. When she was booed out of Staples Center at Survivor Series she couldn’t take it. I’m happy she’s gone from combat sports

The best way to lose a wrestling fans respect is to tell us its fake. Not because we want it to be real, but because you are insulting our intelligence by assuming we didnt already know.

I recall running into Ronda Rousey while flying back from Kauai over 10 years ago. She was just becoming a thing in UFC, so I didn't recognize her at first. Apparently she was on the island for a Sports Illustrated photo shoot. Why it stood out to me at the time was due to the fact she was in line in front of my family and I, yelling at the airline customer service reps to get her boyfriend a First Class ticket next to her despite the flight being full and they had no seats to do so. Her boyfriend had an Affliction T-shirt on (of course) and they later sat in the boarding area looking all irritated and annoyed. Based on what I read and see about her, this makes total sense! 🤔🙄

The biggest thing I remember Ronda saying about Hollie Holm was accusing her of being a fake preachers daughter for absolutely no reason just to try and feed her own anger towards them

Ungrateful. Her Downfall was being unable to cut a promo and she couldn't handle getting Booed. Meanwhile Logan can Wrestle, Cut a promo, and accept being a Heel. She even main evented Wrestlemania. What else does she want?

3:15 Holm, as a former pro boxer, it makes sense that she would be a good stiker. More HH is a former kickboxer, it again makes sense. UFC is not, in my opinion, full of great strikers. I think someone who has kickboxing and boxing in their pocket, means they should excel. RR Winning by arm bars is impressive. Nothing can take away from that.

Rousey was put up against tomato cans, relatively speaking, for much of her UFC career. Fighters who couldn't seem to keep her at a distance letting her close in and spam armbar like a regional-tourney Street Fighter scrub spamming Bison's sliding low HK. And then she confronted a fighter whose actual skills matched Rousey's mouth in Holly Holm. I think the UFC is complicit in creating this mess. We even had FiveThirtyEight publishing puff pieces about why Rousey is, statistically speaking, the most amazing athlete to ever exist. Rousey just believed her own hype. And she never looked at herself with a skeptical eye. It's kind of sad because she is a great athlete.

Not to mention she completely ruined MK11 Sonya for me- her voice acting was worse than Megan Fox's gig

My favorite excuse was her dealing with all her concussions before the fight with Holmes. She had never been rocked, never knocked out, fights lasting less than a minute...but had tons of concussions? Ha.

2:07 that's a weird cut

The dance Ronda did after getting beat up by Nunes should be in the Hall Of Fame.

I remember someone said after her breakdown that "she was female world MMA champion when there was no real female MMA " , and its kinda true when real fighters enter competition she was destroyed .

Her short lived voice acting career was also bad. Her “acting” is just her flat speaking voice.

Man the warning signs... when she came out and actually said 'MMA striking is different and I think I'm the best at it' - right there it was clear she was in a lot of trouble with the other strikers coming in. Even with the fighters she was wrecking easily early in her career it was super clear she wasn't even a good striker amongst them. If we make the argument that grapplers have an advantage against strikers because they aren't afraid of being taken down where strikers are (and that this gives them the advantage of being able to take more chances striking) she still clearly didn't have any striking chops. The fact that she was seemingly actually thinking that she could keep up with Holly or Amanda was such an air raid siren warning. It's likely they'd still have beaten her but if she'd been more aware of those limitations and fought smarter she'd have had a much better time of it. Parental pressure, dangerous ego and really, really bad coaching I guess?

I think it's pretty funny how she was trying to tell Steve-O how fake wrestling is when Steve-O stepped into the ring with Umaga. Steve-O didn't exactly walk out of that ring just fine.

That video of her shadow boxing at 0:55 has got to be one of the funniest things I've seen in a while

She’s probably one of the people that says she can fight men in UFC but then be mad when she loses

when im having any sort of bad day where i want to just break something, i quickly search ronda rousey ko by holm or amanda and i sprinkle a bunch of goofy ass rockhold defeats to just better my day instantly

Remember when everyone in the media swore she could beat every single person on the planet including the UFC heavyweights lol.

It’s funny because I remember the incident where she was trying to cut a promo in her hometown and everyone kept booing her. You can see her visibly mouth the words “I forgot my lines” on screen. It’s very clear she never took the wrestling business seriously and thought she would have everything handed to her because of her name. What a clown.

the only thing she did right was responding to that stupid interviewer talking about the wage gap.

Your edits and visuals are just stunning. Great job!

The fact that now she brings up "an absolutely terrible weight cut" all these years later is laughable... When my friends and I watched that fight, we all said "she's not in shape like in the past; she's not lean at all... Holm is in prime fighting shape, and is going to wreck her with boxing"... There were a few in the group that were fanboys, but they quickly learned the truth. Ronda was in the worst fighting shape of her career going against Holly. It's as if she didn't train/diet at all, while Holly was hell-bent on bringing her down.

She tried accusing Drew Gulak of abuse because she's turned into a nobody. And of course because she's a woman nobody listened to Drew's side, where he said it was an accident (she accused him of deliberately grabbing her pants drawstring, he said he accidentally touched it) She's evil.

Pro wrestling may be scripted but it combines bodybuilding and athleticism, along with acting and theater. The bodybuilding, athleticism, acting, and theater are all real and the amount of time and dedication the pro wrestlers put in to that is immeasurable. Ronda calling pro wrestling fake was the ultimate insult to pro wrestlers who take their jobs very seriously. Most fans know it’s scripted. But calling the industry fake is insulting to fans and the wrestlers.

Rousey thought she was the ish, until Holly Holmes’s foot showed up.

As soon as she faced adversity, she crumbled and never recovered, she got her ass kicked, took her ball and went home.

That's crazy that after all this time she *_still_* can't accept personal responsibility for her losses.

It's easy to become a washout with a super ego when the entire UFC is blowing smoke about you for years. You couldn't escape hearing about her for so long.

She was so hated you would think she could be a highly successful heel, but nope! , she failed at that too.

She gave Alexa Bliss 2 concussions effectively almost ending her career. Now we aren't even sure if she will return.

*One of the worst, and in my opinion, most crippling facets or arrogance is that it's extremely self-limiting. When someone is arrogant, it causes a voluntary handicap to any progress one could have made. If one decides someone is the best and knows everything, why would one even try learning something new?*

The Holly Holm kick and the Nunes beat down were definitely memorable. I can remember the entire pub wanted to Rhonda to fail. It erupted both times she got the brakes beaten off her 😂

Rondas game plan to block Holly's & Amanda's strikes with her face was genius

The irony is the same people that are laughing at ronda were the same ones who were her biggest fans in her prime years

I just wanna add; the wrestlers in WWE are incredible athletes. I respect the hell out of them knowing what goes into it.

Having a organization as lenient as WWE against you just shows how many bridges youve burnt

ronda putting her hands out like "daddy, help me" before getting kicked in her dumb fuggin head was the most satisfying chapter of her arc.

She lost me when she more or less said she could beat whoever is put in front of her when they asked about Cain Velasquez when he was healthy. I was blown away by how delusional people were for even asking questions like that.

Holly Holm is a true American hero

Rhonda be like "I was sick, I was in a coma, my leg was broken, I left the stove on, my little brother was playing, I wasn't even actually trying, etc" We're still getting excuses nearly a whole decade later xD

Becky cropping Ronda as Tommy Wiseau is pure gold lmaoo

Anytime a fighter has won many many fights and loses it kills their confidence

Here the best way to sum up Ronda’s career in MMA and WWE 1. When she first started out, she used her world class judo to win, which was the best strategy and no one at the time had a way to counter it which led to an undefeated record 2. She then got a new coach that had a bigger ego than her and told her to focus on her striking, which was massively lacking, instead of what had been working for her 3. Her ego and confidence in her striking got an even bigger boost when she knocked out Beth Correa in less than a minute in the first round 4. Her ego was on full display on her UF season opposite of Misha Tate who called her out for having less than average striking ability which led to her basically crying to her coach because Misha bruised her ego 4. Then the Holly Holm fight happened where she talked shit saying her winning was guaranteed to win and then she decided to stand up against a world champion kickboxer and was crushed in 40 seconds where she put up literally no offense (was considered a huge upset at the time but in hindsight wasn’t that surprising) 5. Then comes the Amanda nunes fight where she gets destroyed again by the actual GOAT of women’s MMA so badly she leaves the sport entirely Then here comes her tenure in WWE 1. Gets signed and makes her “debut” at the royal rumble to a great reception despite not spending a lot of time in development like almost all pro wrestlers do 2. She starts out decent and looks good in her first few matches 3. Gets one of the main event titles and has a decent run 4. It then comes out that she had been complaining to anyone that would listen about the rigorous schedule that comes with the job 5. Fans started to catch on that her matches looked good because the women she was wrestling were elite at their job and made her look way better than she actually was 6. She couldn’t handle the fans booing her because she couldn’t understand she was the bad guy in this storyline (you would think she would know that would happen before signing with them) 7. Then she acted like wrestling was beneath her despite being signed to wwe 8. Lastly wwe finally caught on that she wasn’t over with the fans and she really had no interest in anything outside of a paycheck so they shelved her until she was finally released Also she is 10000000000000% jealous of Logan Paul’s success Ronda rousey really needs a reality check

I feel like now we say "one trick poney," but I remember her peak of popularity. People were selling her as the STRONGEST woman in the world, and the whole mistic was that nobody would survive in a ring with her for too long without "tap, nap, or snap." The problem is that she believed in that hype; she was living the character. To a point, u had people gassing her to fight Floyd Mayweather. Ronda story is tragic because, for better or worse, she helped A LOT womans MMA. Now that her ego shielded a very mentally weak person, once she fell hard, she didn't have the tenacity to stand up. The same thing happened at WWE.

I don’t understand why these people make a big deal about being booed. Being the bad guy seems more fun than being a face

Ronda reminds me of my younger self. She always thinks she is far better than she really is and whenever reality creeps in and tells her she is not as good as she is - she continues to double down instead of admitting that she isnt as good as he think she is. One day she will have to reallign with reality and accept where she is and who she is. Until then , she will suffer.

I hate her for her voice acting as Sonya Blade in MK11, it’s so painful to listen to

2:40 on an unrelated note, hollys kindness doesn't really go with her appearance. She looks like she could be even meaner than ronda, yet she acts like a real sweetheart. Really goes to show looks can be deceiving.

It is truly sad to see Ronda devote so much time on these career choices, as well as those who devoted their time watching/liking/subscribing/supporting/blaming her.

A youtuber calling a ufc champion a failure is wild

Its crazy to think that something like the UFC or even WWE is supposed to humble you. Brock Lesnar's first MMA fight, he was cocky and thought he could beat Mir and got his ass absolutely handed to him. Sure, he was confident in his abilities, but he wasn't this guy who would boast about how he was unbeatable. In an interview, he even admitted to how he didn't know what happened and that Cain Velasquez beat his ass fair and square. I saw a comment that said "Brock probably grew up as this big bully and was finally humbled when he went of against people who were more skilled and bigger than him". If Ronda learned that same humility, she would've been loved by fans and fighters alike.

Unfortunately she built her entire identity on being an undefeated MMA fighter. After Holm, it all came crashing down, and caused her to have an irrational identity crises. Most fightets would accept defeat and come back stronger, but she internalised her losses so much, she was never the same.

You ever see interviews with her mother? She is pretty rough. Abrasive, rude, arrogant ,exhausting are a few words that come to mind.

Damn. All I remember was that one punch knockout she managed back in 2015, the fact she played Sonya in MK11, and then..... nothing else.

Wrestling is like brutal theater. FFS you don't see Tony Stark's actor loose his shit and beat Thanos' actor for real saying its an insult to real heroes. Wtf

Considering all of that, it seems like the only SEMI relevant thing she's done was TERRIBLY voice Sonya Blade in MK11.

She talks about how FAKE Wrestling is yet her book is as delusional as any match or story could be. Wrestling fans know what Wrestling is, alienating potential fans by making fun of it is why fans turned on her. She only has herself to blame for ever failure. Logan Paul is disliked outside the ring by man people. Inside the ring and on the show he is liked by a majority because he gets it and puts work in. It is annoying because I wish he was more like Ronda as I hate that he is as good as he is. Ronda will be forgotten and sadly Logan is bound for a Hall of Fame and to be remembered. The only power Ronda has now is to spew hate and get people fired for lies.

I never thought I’d found someone who made Logan Paul tolerable lol
