‘The Baddest Woman on the Planet’ arrived in WWE in a dramatic fashion and took the world by storm after putting on an astounding performance against Stephanie McMahon and Triple H at WrestleMania.

Eventually, her reputation as a UFC superstar followed her inside the squared circle, and the former UFC Women’s Champion delivered on it.

Ronda won several matches, but it was her physical dominance that caught the eye of the WWE Universe. Recently, WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella confessed that Ronda is the hardest-hitting woman in this industry.

Speaking on this week’s episode of The Bellas Podcast, the two sisters agreed that Rousey is a formidable superstar and had charisma to connect with fans.

Nikki Bella reflected on her match with Ronda at the Evolution PPV in 2018. She confessed that in all her years as a wrestler she never took a beating from a wrestler quite like Ronda Rousey.

“Her strength is unreal. That Evolution match, I never felt that kind of strength in a woman before. We’ve been getting slammed by women for fifteen years. When I fought Ronda [Rousey], I was like, this is a whole other level of strength. It’s like a flawless strength, it’s hard to describe.” said Nikki.
