WWE superstar and MMA fighter-turned wrestler Ronda Rousey has been out of action ever since he lost her Raw women's championship to Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 35 in 2019. Since then Ronda has been spending some quality time at home with her husband and professional MMA fighter Travis Browne.
Now, Ronda Rousey announced on her official YouTube channel that she and Travis Browne are expecting a baby girl. In the video, a pregnant Rousey said, "Our gender reveal is finally here. We didn't want to do anything that would send hundreds of acres ablaze, or a thousand even. We didn't wanna do that, so we're keeping it simple, we're keeping it safe."
What follows in the video is a photo of the baby in her womb with the text - It's a girl!
WWE also shared the announcement on their Instagram page and wrote, "Congratulations, @rondarousey and @travisbrownemma! ðÂ¥° ðÂÂÂ."
