Eventually, Rousey won the women’s Royal Rumble match and booked a slot at one of the main events at WrestleMania 38. This was a surprise that no one in the audience expected.
However, it is her hiatus that is more talked about because Rousey took a break from wrestling because of her mental health and also because she wanted to start a family with her husband.
The Olympic medalist has been a tremendous advocate for mental health and has publicly detailed the importance of having a peaceful mind.
However, months ago, the former champ penned down an aggressive note on Twitter where she blasted people online who took shots on Simone Biles because she withdrew from Tokyo Olympics to aid her mental health.

Ronda Rousey had harsh words to say
Simone Arianne Biles is an American artistic gymnast, and she created headlines when she voluntarily removed herself from the Tokyo Olympics back in 2021, citing mental health issues.
However, the fans on the internet trolled her big time and Rousey was someone who stepped in to defend her.
Rousey blatantly called names to the trolls and mocked that while they are typing on her phones, Biles is winning Olympic medals.

“Everyone judging @Simone_Biles doesnt know their foot from their a**hole when it comes to being in her position. Shes on the Olympic team while you’re on Twitter. Whatever is going on cannot be grasped from outside. She’s doing the absolute best she can given the situation she’s in.” she wrote.

It was a big deal back then and WWE superstars like Bianca Belair also supported Biles’ decision. Now, there are camps during these sports events which tend to affect athletes’ mental health.

This also happened with former WWE superstar Nia Jax when she took some time off because of her mental health issues. Eventually, in this industry, the athletes give all they have and there should be more emphasis on their mental health just like their physical health.
