From an Olympic Tatami to the UFC Octagon to the WWE Ring
UFC Hall of Famer and Olympic medalist Ronda Rousey is making her WWE console video game debut in WWE 2K19. Rousey will be wearing her signature ring gear inspired by the legendary “Rowdy” Roddy Piper as “Rowdy” Ronda.
“As a WWE Superstar, having support from the Piper family means everything to me,” said Ronda Rousey. “It’s an honor to be part of WWE 2K19 and have my name mentioned alongside so many important Superstars in WWE history, including Rey Mysterio, Kurt Angle, Ultimate Warrior, Sting and Goldberg.”
“Anybody can call themselves ‘Rowdy’, but it takes a special, talented and dedicated individual to live up to the ‘Rowdy’ name,” said Colt Toombs, son of “Rowdy” Roddy Piper. “My dad saw it in Ronda, and so do we. She is truly ‘Rowdy to the core,’ and that mindset really comes through in the trailer for WWE 2K19.”
