Another person associated with the WrestleMania 32 event was UFC megastar Ronda Rousey. WWE featured her in a segment at Mania 31, leading to talk of Rock and Rousey versus Triple H and Stephanie McMahon at 32. The company were very serious about using her, even though UFC President Dana White appeared to pour cold water on the idea. Regardless of that, WWE kept mentioning Rousey on their shows, on their website, and on their key social media accounts. And then the Mania curse hit, with Rousey announcing in the summer that she wouldn't be able to appear at Mania due to the shooting timetable of a new film she's in. Furthermore, she then suffered a devastating knockout against Holly Holm at UFC 193, with some blaming her "distracted" lifestyle on the loss. What had Rousey been thinking when talking about becoming WWE Divas Champion in the weeks before that loss? She'd lost sight of reality it seemed. Like The Undertaker and his streak, the now defeated Rousey is less valuable to WWE than she once was. Her mythos was tied into her invincibility.
