Coach don't think Vince can bring her in now Yeah, I actually agree a bit. This isn't the same as bringing in Tyson right off of his notoriety from biting off Holyfield's ear. Three months might not be enough time for Rousey to turn around the bad public image from getting murked in 48 seconds, using a WWE run (and their own shaky image just from being wrestling) as the next thing for her to do. Maybe in another year or so, but I'm not sure what she does in the meantime.

So what's next for Ronda? People say WWE but she really destroyed her image tonight, with Hollywood the same I still think WWE would take her no problem. Brock got destroyed by Cain and Overeem pretty much the same way Ronda did, and they had no issues. When it's not real they can at least pretend you're a badass and she did at least have credibility like Brock did before they got smoked. Mainstream Hollywood is done now. She might be able to do some direct to dvd stuff, but anything like Marvel movies and such people were talking about eighteen months ago is gone.

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. She won't be getting top billing as a guest star like she was before. You had commercials focus on her for a 20 second cameo and people would be hooked

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. If nothing else, that means Travis Browne isn't back to his old tricks if she's not used to getting hit in the face. That's one positive. Have I ever mentioned how much I hate that guy?

Thrillashaw-Garbrandt is definitely a fight they can go all-in on. That is a fight tailor made for the UFC hype machine. Hell, stick it as the co-main of a McGregor card and give them a bump.

Gina as well wasn't nearly as high profile both at her height or her fall. She bounced back, but I think most moviegoers are only peripherally aware of her fight background. Ronda's whole deal was this uber badass.

Coach don't think Vince can bring her in now Her vs. a returning Punk with the old Martel/HBK stipulation that neither can get hit in the face.

Ronda's whole deal was this uber badass. And her appeal in movies was uber badass. Without that aura she's either going have to take acting lessons or find a different route

Were people easier on giving it to Lesnar because of how the diverticulitis affected him at that time? It might have been a lot more pity as opposed to out-and-out mockery.

Anyone know who Amanda is fighting next? Raquel Pennington? I would guess the winner of Shevchenko vs. Pena on FOX next month, especially if it's Pena who has been asking for a title shot for a while.

People clearly knew Brock wasn't what he was. He was flawed but with the disease it took away everything that could help him.

I mainly meant in that WWE can kinda pretend she's still an asskicker if they do it right. I will concede that Brock was gone long enough for the way his last two fights went to have faded a bit and not been fresh.

Yeah if you saw her in the fast movie she wasn't good at all She was the worst actor by a quarter mile. And you know that's saying something when Ludacris is part of the cast.

Tate had to have been salivating for this. In the pre fight stuff, she was virtually giddy with the thought this might happen.
