Most people think Ronda Rousey is a brutal fighter who cares more about cracking skulls than she does offering a friendly shoulder. She was absolutely a hell hound in the UFC cage and whenever she worked matches in WWE. That's true, but there's a hidden side to Ronda's psyche that not many talk about.

Natalya knows all about it.

According to comments Nattie made to E News (ones that could shatter the former Raw Women's Champion's hard nosed image), Rousey is a total sweetheart behind the scenes. In fact, she was one of the main crutches for Natalya after her father passed away. Left to mourn the death of Jim Neidhart, she found a perhaps unlikely sanctuary by Rousey's side.

Ronda was so caring that Nattie came through her grieving quicker than she thought she would. There you go. Not only is Rousey capable of snapping necks without breaking sweat, she's also one heck of a support net for chums in need.
