Ronda Rousey said her appearance at AEW Revolution was partly a dig at TKO Group following the collapse of her UFC return negotiations, speaking on her YouTube channel.
​
"It's kind of a cool little bit of a, like little bit of a f**k you to the TKO group, which is kind of funny because WWE is on Netflix, but I kind of figured it'd be easier to ask for forgiveness instead of permission on this one. Like, I'm promoting your show. It's fine. We didn't advertise it. It's not like we boosted the ratings of it, so it should be fine."
​
On being smuggled into the arena: "They had me jump into a wheelchair and throw a tarp over me and wheel me in here. I thought this was going to be much more chill, but they're acting like it's freaking Royal Rumble super secret whatever."
​
On AEW: "I've never been to an AEW pay-per-view so I don't really know what to expect so much, but I'm thinking a less restrictive, more adult version of WWE, which sounds like a good time."
​
On Marina Shafir: "She's absolutely crushing it and I'm so proud of her. I'm so happy that everybody's finally starting to take notice of how incredibly special she is."
​
Rousey is not expected to return to AEW anytime soon. She faces Gina Carano on May 16 on Netflix.
