ICYMI: The Memes after Ronda Rousey’s Loss Were Just as Brutal as Her KO

By November 16, 2015 at 4:13 pm

UFC Female Bantamweight Champion Ronda Rousey was the victim of a stunning upset at UFC 193, where challenger Holly Holm thoroughly dominated the champ en route to a second round knock out. Holm, an experienced boxer and kickboxer, used her reach to keep Rousey at a distance and then peppered the champ with punches, elbows and a kick to the head that sealed the deal. Like clockwork, the memes began hitting the internet practically as soon as Rousey hit the canvas. No matter what heights you reach, you can count on social media to pile it on when you’re knocked down. Here are some of the memes that made the rounds:

Rousey joined Manny Pacquiao, Johnny Manziel and a few others on “Mount Rushmore.”

Young Simba arrived to check on Rousey’s health.

And Holly Holm read Rousey a few bedtime stories.

While 50 Cent reminded his followers of a few scenes from the Rocky series.

Michael Jordan’s “crying face” reared its head again…

And “Uncle Denzel” was there to celebrate.

While Some People Are Excited About Ronda Rousey’s First WWE Victory, Others Are Not Impressed

After her Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) career came to an end, fans were uncertain about Ronda Rousey’s path moving forward – until recently.

The former Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) fighter made her WrestleMania debut this weekend alongside professional wrestler Kurt Angle. WrestleMania is an annual event produced by World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE), which consists of several matches for competing titles. This year was WWE’s 34th annual WrestleMania event and although it was Rousey’s very first time competing in the WWE ring, she impressed the audience with her savage win against wrestlers Stephanie McMahon and Triple H.

As soon as Rousey got tagged into the ring by her partner Angle, the TV show commentators exclaimed, “Here comes Rousey! Call the cops!”

Rousey did not give McMahon a single break in the ring.

What made WWE fans even more excited about this match, was the moment Rousey cornered and socked Triple H as if he was a punching bag.

No. Mercy.

She also had Triple H over her shoulders at one point in the match.

And Triple H is not small at all.

Overall, the WWE audience voted Rousey’s tag team match to be the most enjoyable out of all the matches from this year’s WrestleMania.

However, other people on the internet showed that they weren’t happy nor impressed about Rousey’s transition from UFC to WWE.

In Rousey’s defense, people explained that although WWE consists of choreographed matches, they’re still not easy and actually take a lot of training.

In a post interview Rousey’s partner and mentor Angle expressed how proud and optimistic he felt about Rousey’s future with sports entertainment. “That’s her first match and look how she blew the roof off the joint. Ronda has a big future here. This is what she was meant to do,” Angle said.

Similarly, Rousey expressed her gratitude for this opportunity in an interview with ESPN. “I thought I would never say this, but I’m so happy I lost those fights [to Holly Holm and Amanda Nunes] because it led me here. This is so worth it,” Rousey said.

Rousey’s future with WWE is not set in stone, but fans can’t wait to see her grow as a professional wrestler if she continues on this path.

Demi Lovato Will Be Singing The National Anthem At The Boxing Match, Maybe Next Time She’ll Get Her Own Fight

Demi Lovato has been tapped to sing the national anthem at the upcoming Floyd Mayweather and Connor McGregor on August 26. The pop star has long been vocal, and visible, about her love for the world of mixed martial arts, so it isn’t a total surprise that she would be associated with a highly anticipated fight.

Demi Lovato first started to show off her love of all things mixed martial arts (MMA) towards the end of last year.

She has made it a point to train with people who are very much involved with the upper echelons of MMA. It was even reported that the singer wanted to have a true, legitimate MMA fight. That said, it isn’t totally surprising that UFC would tap the singer to sing the national anthem.

She has put her training to the test by going against Sylvester Stallone.

Okay. Clearly, Stallone let her win but who else can say they got to rumble with Rocky?

Lovato has expressed that MMA helped her break the boredom of her traditional workouts.

“Sometimes I get really bored when I do just an hour of cardio, so sometimes I struggle with boredom,” Lovato told PEOPLE. “But that’s why I like to train MMA, because it keeps it exciting.”

She even dated BJJ black belt and MMA fighter Guilherme ”Bomba” Vasconcelos at one point.

When you kick bae's ass ??? #jiujitsu @bombatuf

And, quite frankly, she owned him in the gym. ?

But, the burning question is, will Lovato plug her Fabletics clothing line?

Only watching her performance will tell.
