Ronda Rousey will be a WWE 2K character for the first time in WWE 2K19

The main event between Drew McIntyre and Seth Rollins was great, as was the opening segment between Bobby Lashley and Roman Reigns, but the best thing about this week’s Raw was the WWE 2K19 advert involving Ronda Rousey.

With Ronda sitting in an empty locker room next to her Roddy Piper-inspired attire and with an original Piper jacket hung up in front of her, the advert played archive audio of a conversation that the two had before Roddy passed away in 2015.

Here are the words that Roddy used when speaking to Ronda during an appearance on his podcast:

"The only thing I want from you is to be as successful as you wanna be and as happy as you possibly can. I don’t say this to people, really. You’re very special. The thing that you’re doing the best is showing other people that you can do it. You are going to give so many people hope and I’m proud of you."
