Ronda Rousey spent a boring seven hours hiding on a bus at Philadelphia's Wells Fargo Center in January 2018. She was waiting to make her WWE debut on the Royal Rumble pay-per-view, and wasn't allowed to show face until minutes before coming through the curtain. Ronda was also waiting on Triple H to come tell her what WWE expected.

He brought a piece of paper, a pen and played artist.

On WWE 24, Ronda told how she sat puzzled as Trips literally drew up the scene for her debut. He sketched the ring, the stage, her and the big neon WrestleMania 34 sign in the background. When Rousey looked at her figure, she could see he wanted her to point directly at the hanging sign and leave nobody in any doubt.

Ronda was confused at the time why Triple H didn't just tell her to "point at the sign" and leave it at that. After sketching, he told her to "feel it" and do some other stuff within reason if she wanted to.
