Daniel Cormier ‘excited, happy’ to see Ronda Rousey in WWE

When Ronda Rousey made her long rumored debut with the WWE last Sunday, you can bet that noted pro wrestling fanatic and UFC light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier was tuning in.

Rousey appeared at the close of the WWE’s Royal Rumble event in Philadelphia, sharing the ring with performers Alexa Bliss, Asuka, and Charlotte, pointing to the massive WrestleMania sign in the arena, and then shaking hands with company executive Stephanie McMahon, who was at ringside. Seeing as how Rousey didn’t say a single word, her debut may have left more questions than answers as far as how her transition from the Octagon to the ring will go.
