Ronda Rousey is one of WWE’s biggest stars right now. Hence, it is not shocking that Ronda featured in WWE’s Elimination Chamber premium live event. However, the event took place in Saudi Arabia this year, which led to some changes. Due to cultural reasons, WWE women Superstars have to cover themselves up. However, Ronda’s outfit required one exception.
Ronda Rousey followed the rules regarding covering up when she went to compete in the ring. However, she wanted to go to the ring in her Judogi. Ronda is a former Judo artist and has won many accolades in judo over the years. Moreover, she even went to the Olympics representing the United States in Judo. Hence, she used her Judogi for Elimination Chamber 2022.
