Ronda Rousey makes shock admission over WWE future amid pregnancy rumours

Ronda Rousey has suggested she could quit WWE to have a baby.

The former UFC star is taking a break from wrestling following her WrestleMania defeat to Becky Lynch.

Rousey, who is contracted until 2021, has suggested she initially intended to be in WWE for a few months.

And after hinting she is trying for a child with husband Travis Browne, Rousey has admitted wrestling fans may have seen her in a ring for the final time.

“It just sort of snowballed into, instead of being like, a small detour in my life, became my whole life for an entire year and I completely fell in love with it," she said on her YouTube channel.

"As time went on in the company I ended up getting the title and it became a real possibility that women could be the main event in WrestleMania.

“I decided to stick around and we planned, after WrestleMania, me and my amazing husband here would go off and start trying to start our family.

“As for WWE plans in the future, we want to have a baby first. I don’t know what it’s like to have a baby.

“I could look down at this beautiful child and be like, ‘F*** everything, I don’t care about anything else other than this baby’ and, you’ll never see me again."

Rousey admitted she could also follow in the footsteps of her mother, who won judo titles weeks after giving birth.

She added: "I don’t want to make any promises about the future when I don’t know how I’m gonna feel in the future.”
