Ronda Rousey has indicated that she won’t be returning to the WWE, however, she is considering potential wrestling opportunities under the right conditions moving forward. The former UFC champion recently parted ways with WWE after her contract came to an end and disagreements emerged with WWE executive Bruce Prichard. Rousey was spotted at an independent wrestling event in southern California, where she showed support for a fundraiser aiding the victims of the tragic fires in Lahaina, Hawaii.

Citing her previous experiences with concussions and her desire to start a family with her husband Travis Browne, Rousey doesn’t envision a full-time return to professional wrestling. Nonetheless, she is open to selective opportunities similar to the one she embraced in November. Rousey has shown interest in participating in local independent shows where she can have more input into her matches.

One promotion keen on collaborating with Rousey is Bloodsport, overseen by former UFC athlete Josh Barnett. Barnett believes that Rousey would be a great fit for Bloodsport, noting that Rousey’s good friend Marina Shafir has previously competed at their events.

If Rousey ever considers stepping back into the ring, Barnett is confident that Bloodsport would provide an ideal platform for her talents.
