Mr. McMahon resigned from the company after allegations from former WWE employee Janel Grant were made public. Speaking with popular comedian Bert Kreischer on the Bertcast show, Rousey claimed that money wasn't the most important thing to McMahon. She suggested that the 80-year-old cared more about his influence on society than the money he was making.

“I think Vince didn't really care about how successful the company or how much money he was making. He cared about how much influence he had on other people, culturally. So he was trying to impress his viewpoint of the world on everybody else through that. The bottom line be damned,” Rousey said.

The 38-year-old recently took a shot at Alexa Bliss and bashed the company for having them compete against each other. Alexa Bliss, AJ Lee, Charlotte Flair, Rhea Ripley, and IYO SKY emerged victorious in the Women's WarGames match at Survivor Series 2025. Only time will tell if Rousey ever makes another WWE appearance down the line.
