10 Most Dangerous Wrestlers Under Six Feet Tall
3. Ronda Rousey
Still brand spanking new to professional wrestling, Ronda Rousey's fearsome reputation from a life well lived in Olympic judo and Mixed Martial Arts has aided a thus-far seamless transition to the world of Sports Entertainment.
Clearly a genuine fan and enthusiast for the artform, Rousey's 'Rowdy' moniker came from her devotion to the late Roddy Piper. What she currently lacks in his verbal dexterity, she makes up for in his exceptional sparring spirit and physical charisma.
A major, major star amongst Raw's rank-and-file thanks to a convincing and calculated WrestleMania 34 debut, Ronda's in-built reputation from her iconic UFC Women's Bantamweight Title reign and undefeated streak (and the two heartbreaking losses that followed) rounded her edges perfectly to enter a rich new second life as a WWE superstar.
Intentionally protected in these early stages, Ronda's value relies on her believable toughness. Without that, she's just another card-filler on par with a Mandy Rose or Alicia Fox. The speed at which she's come to terms with how and when to deploy her devastating death-stare suggests she'll advance far beyond even measured expectations.
