Morning Report: Dana White reacts to Ronda Rousey’s move from the UFC to WWE

Over the weekend, former UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey’s long-rumored transition from MMA into the world of professional wrestling was completed when Rousey showed up at one of the WWE’s marquee events, the Royal Rumble, and then announced that she had signed on with the WWE full-time. Rousey has said she wouldn’t rule the possibility of returning to MMA someday, but it’s clear professional wrestling is her immediate future; and UFC President Dana White fully supports her decision.

Speaking to Adam Hill of the Las Vegas Review-Journal, White said that he was happy for Rousey for accomplishing her dreams.
