Before her time at the UFC, Rousey used to work as an assistant for a dogs’ physical therapist. Now, with her farm and subsequent menagerie, she is happy to spend more time with her animals.
She enjoys spending time with her goats — especially one named Rio, who she used to bottle-feed when he was still a baby.
Farm Girl
For someone who made most of her fortune fighting other people, Rousy's leads a pretty quiet life. She and her husband live on a farm— a large property located in Venice, California.
The couple grows fruits and vegetables on their farm, plus an array of farm animals such as ducks, goats, and chickens. According to Rousey, her perfect Sunday would involve cooking a farm-grown breakfast and tending to the ducks' pond.
Let's Talk About Food
Many professional athletes are very careful with what they eat and stick to a strict diet. In 2012 Rousey said that the one she follows has elements from the Paleo diet and the Warrior Diet.
Rousey practiced a vegan diet for a while although she doesn't adhere to one now. She likes eating organic and grows as much as she can of her own produce.
Going to WWE?
After her shameful loss to Nunes in 2016, Rousey stopped fighting and focused on acting. It fulfilled her to a certain degree, but she was still open for other opportunities that might be coming her way.
Word got around the wrestling circles that Rousey is about to star in WWE. Still, nothing was made official so it was all just a rumor. Still, she was later seen with Triple H — a major WWE personality, so the rumor wasn't completely baseless.
A WWE Debut
In February 2018, Rousey signed with WWE. Her debut came two months later in the Superdome at WrestleMania 34. She was teamed with Kurt Angle and they fought against Triple H and Stephanie McMahon.
She was thrilled to win that fight and surprised at how well-mannered the huge crowd was. Coming from outside WWE, she was expecting a cold shoulder from the fans, but they were incredibly kind.
