Ronda Rousey has had one of the most celebrated MMA careers of all time. She enjoyed knocking down her opponents so casually for years inside that caged-octagon. After joining the UFC in 2011, her popularity only kept growing. The Arm Collector skyrocketed in her journey after remaining undefeated for years. Back in 2015, Rousey became a household name, and people loved to drag her into newsworthy stories.

During that time, Eminem released a music album whose title track included Ronda Rousey in the lyrics. Although the 50-year-old rapper had no intentions of praising The Rowdy One, that one phrase caught everyone’s attention. Eminem referred to her as “Slaughterhouse in a blouse” in SHADY XV. Just like everyone else, Ronda’s eyebrows raised after knowing her acknowledgement in such an absurd way.

Making an appearance on Jimmy Kennel Live to promote her then-upcoming fight against Cat Zingano, Rousey addressed the line from Eminem. Instead of bashing the record-breaking rapper, The Baddest Woman on the Planet appreciated the art involved in that rap. According to her, art isn’t supposed to be nice, it’s meant to make someone feel something.

Further, she added that getting rapped by Eminem is like getting armbarred by her. “He’s (Eminem) an artist and art isn’t meant to be nice, it’s meant to make you feel something, “I like being called a slaughterhouse in a blouse. I think that’s cool,” she said. Rousey admitted that she’s not perfect, but there are some really amazing things about her.

The former SmackDown Women’s Champion acknowledged Eminem and his creativity. She took the rap in a positive way and praised the world famous singer. “It might not be so pleasant if you’re on the other side of it, but it’s so skillfully done you have to be honured,” she said.

Ronda Rousey’s current state in WWE?

These past few months have been extremely on and off for Ronda Rousey. Weeks prior to WrestleMania, she picked up an injury, which forced the creative plans to change extensively. Initially, Rousey and Baszler were penciled in to become the new Women’s Tag-Team Champions in Los Angeles. However, after learning the severity of Ronda’s physical condition, WWE dropped the plans.

Just to have her on the card at Mania, WWE booked her and Shayna Baszler in a WrestleMania Showcase fatal-4-way tag match. The former UFC aces ran through each team to pick up the win. Throughout the match, Rousey mostly stayed away from in-ring action to prevent any further complications. This week on Raw, both Rousey and Baszler returned and launched a sneak attack on Raquel Rodriguez on the stage.

The duo completely mauled Raquel Rodriguez to make a statement. Besides, due to Liv Morgan’s injury, WWE will crown brand new Women’s Tag Team Champions on Raw after Night of Champions. The teams include Ronda Rousey & Shayna Baszler, Sonya Deville & Chelsea Green, Bayley & Iyo Sky and Raquel Rodriguez & a mystery partner.
