WWE probably would be a good venue. Cuz the thing about Hollywood and the movies and stuff; ALL that hinged on her being a destroyer. If the Holm fight didn't erase that, it's GONE now. I say that even as a fan, there is no aura at all. Yeah, I thought she needed to win this to keep her acting career going, because her charisma isn't enough to build it without that mystique. This fight meant more to her.

Who is left other then McGregor as a draw Cody Garbrandt needs to get the McGregor treatment. Thrillashaw-Garbrandt is definitely a fight they can go all-in on.

Agreed. Nobody cannot take away her victories and how impressive they were. However, she was overhyped in regards to best of all time and placing her on a pedestal so early Most of that had to do with her being the first real big female MMA superstar. People mention Gina Carano but, she was there and gone in record time. Ronda was around as the marquee woman for much longer. I almost compare her to Tito Ortiz. Tito was a huge star during a time when UFC was struggling to even stay on PPV and the competition was over in Japan and when the competition got better, he started getting exposed in the same way Ronda is now. Gina was "1st star" but she never took it to new height like Ronda did. Once she got dropped by Cyborg it was over for her. Ronda is essentially following her path to Hollywood

However, she was overhyped in regards to best of all time and placing her on a pedestal so early It's interesting because there's a writer in Edmonton who rather smugly referred to her as nothing more than a media creation that feasted on amateurs and that anyone that disagreed with him didn't know anything about MMA. I think she was definitely overhyped by the media, but to diminish her accomplishments is unfair. Yea it's unfair to her and her opponents. Meisha Tate is really good but she just couldn't get over Ronda. Ronda built up an invincibility but once she got knocked on her ass it was over. It was a def overhype. From people talking bout she can match Floyd as a draw to comparing her to male fighters and even f***img Joe Rogan calling her the greatest of all time with tears in his eyes.

Remember about 14-15 months ago when people made arguments that Ronda could beat Floyd Mayweather?

Tyler Boeh @tylerboeh 2 minutes ago Every time Ronda Rousey gets hit she looks like she's never been punched in the face before and doesn't know why it's happening. #UFC207
That sums it up pretty well.

So what's next for Ronda? People say WWE but she really destroyed her image tonight, with Hollywood the same Gina Carano is still getting jobs even after getting mauled by Cyborg. Not as big as they would have been had she pulled off the upset but, jobs all the same. I think you can find something for Ronda.
