  • Hostility on the Set: In her autobiography, Rousey let loose over how much she hated some of the higher-ups in WWE, specifically calling out Vince McMahon, John Laurinaitis, and Bruce Prichard for their abysmal influence over the company, its shows, and its talent, to say nothing about the severe sexual misconduct the former two have been accused of and were being sued over.
  • Promoted Fanboy:
    • A huge fan of wrestling who cut her teeth instead at Ultimate Fighting Championship. However, she kept attending events and after a cameo at WrestleMania 31, she finally was hired by the WWE, making her debut at Royal Rumble 2018.
    • Also, she has been a fan of Mortal Kombat since childhood, and Sonya Blade was her first memory of an Action Girl (who she "admittedly kind of emulated in [her] own way" in her UFC and WWE careers). Now she's in Mortal Kombat 11 as the voice of Sonya, and got to join her two passions by entering to the Elimination Chamber 2019 dressed as Sonya herself!
    • A fan of World of Warcraft, Rousey was given a part in the 2019 Vanilla launch trailer as a tavern brawler alongside other fans.
  • Real Song Theme Tune: "Bad Reputation" by Joan Jett, in both UFC and WWE.
