Ronda Rousey is one of the best legitimate athletes to have ever wrestled in WWE. While she was only with the company in the ring for just over a year, she impressed everyone for the entire time that she was there.

She won the RAW Women's title and even competed in the first-ever main event for women at WrestleMania, facing Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch. She lost the match at WrestleMania 35 and since then, has been absent from the wrestling ring.

When Rousey's name is mentioned, fans usually think of her time in the UFC or her time in WWE. However, she had a career even before that in the world of Judo. She fought and defeated almost everyone that she faced there.

She competed in the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, and made an immediate impression there. She competed to win the Bronze Medal, becoming the first-ever female competitor from the USA to win a medal in Judo at the Olympics.

After Ronda Rousey returned from the Olympic games back in 2008, she was homeless. She found herself living in her 2005 Honda while working as a waitress & working the front desk at a 24-Hour Fitness. pic.twitter.com/GlhzJWkHLn
