Rousey's WWE move was made official in late January when it was announced that she had signed a "full-time" contract with the company. Around the same time, she made her first appearance as part of the WWE roster during Royal Rumble 2018.

The hype behind her big career move was greatly talked about in both pro-wrestling and the MMA circles, but it all seemed to have dwindled when everyone saw her Royal Rumble appearance. Fan comments after the event described what they saw as "cringy" and that the WWE "did a poor job" in introducing her.

Rousey will be publicizing her WWE signing inside the squared ring on the upcoming Elimination Chamber event on February 25th. While the outcome is a bit expected, it would still be interesting to see how that would turn out.
