Combat sports competitions are generally gender-specific. But that rule doesn’t apply to WWE. Being an entertainment sport, we have often seen the divas going hand to hand with male wrestlers. The female roster has grown significantly over the years in the WWE universe with many talented wrestlers from all over the world. Meanwhile, the legendary Hulk Hogan thinks that this one female wrestler, in particular, could easily demolish ”The Beast” Brock Lesnar.
In an interview with TMZ Sports, Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair praised the former UFC champion Ronda Rousey once. Rousey was still new to the WWE world at that time and, on the question of her joining the company, Ric Flair, as usual, gave a long speech. But Hollywood Hogan interrupted The Nature Boy and said, “She could kick Brock’s a**.”

Hulk Hogan wasn’t the only one who thought that Rousey would become a successful babyface in the WWE. Ric Flair wanted a match between her daughter Charlotte Flair and Ronda Rousey as well. “I’ve met her twice, and she’s been nice and she’ll bring, you know, a lot of notoriety to the company. Hopefully, she wrestles my daughter. That’s what I want, that’s what everybody wants. The Queen and Ronda.”
The prediction of Flair came to life when “Rowdy” Ronda did fight Queen Charlotte in WrestleMania 38 and lost. But The Queen was beaten by Rousey at WrestleMania Backlash. However, the question here is, can Ronda Rousey really beat Brock Lesnar in a fight? Well, her previous stats say so.
Can Ronda Rousey beat Brock Lesnar?
According to Hulk Hogan, Rousey could easily defeat Lesnar, but let’s put that into context. Rousey and Lesnar were both lethal MMA fighters back in their day. The Beast is twice the weight of Ronda and a few inches taller too, but that never stopped The Baddest Woman on the Planet before.
A story that Ronda Rousey is famous for was that during her Judo days, Rousey thrashed two guys in a street fight so badly that they went to the police to file a complaint against her. Rousey herself confirmed the story later and explained it as a self-defense situation.
