Ronda Rousey’s WWE arrest was logged as legit

A 2019 arrest of Ronda Rousey on WWE television was registered by the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services. Huh?

“The interesting part is what was listed under the “Additional Notes” field for the former RAW Women’s Champion. That field for Rousey notes, “Publicly supported Democratic Party candidate Bernie Sanders for 2016 election. Anti-feminist views at times. Arrested during WWE event in 2019.”

The WWE arrest refers to the April 1, 2019 RAW episode, which was the go-home show for WrestleMania 35, where Rousey faced Charlotte Flair and winner Becky Lynch in the main event, with the RAW and SmackDown Women’s Titles on the line.” – via Wrestling Inc.

The evidence is hard to argue with.

It’d be interesting to see their notes on the likes of The Undertaker, Frodo Baggins, Tony Stark, and other candidates they could’ve been considering. The employee at DHHS putting the report on Rousey together is either a fan doing what all great fans do, or an actual adult who’s peeved at being forced to watch professional wrestling.

Either way, we appreciate the effort to hold on to things like the absolute reality of professional wrestling. It’s 2020. We don’t have much else left at this point. Let us have this.

Gamblers aren’t always the smartest, and they think they have the Edwards-Chimaev fight picked better than the experts in Vegas. You can’t always trust experts, or those in charge, though. Some of them might still think WWE is real. Then again, we all thought Khabib Nurmagomedov’s retirement last week was real, but according to Dana White, a return could be in the cards. Huh.

Huh? for the road
