Current WWE Superstar and former UFC standout Ronda Rousey is voicing Sonya Blade in “Mortal Kombat 11,” game makers revealed on Thursday. Yeah, the current “Raw” Women’s Champion knows a couple of fight moves, so this one makes perfect sense.
The voice casting of Rousey came out during a live stream of game footage today.
Watch the Sonya-Ronda trailer via the video above. In it, “Rowdy” Ronda Rousey shares her love of the series — and her admiration for the cartoon combatant embodying her badass spirit.
Did you catch Blade pulling off Rousey’s trademark arm-bar finishing maneuver? Fatality.
“Mortal Kombat 11” is available April 23 on Ps4, Xbox One and PC.
Every WWE Champion Ever, Ranked by Number of Reigns (Photos)
Pro-wrestling championship belts change hands like grapplers change ring gear these days, though it wasn't always that way. Bobby Lashley is again WWE Champion, thanks to a little outside interference from Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman at the 2022 WWE Royal Rumble.
After a Brock Lesnar F-5 K.O.-ed the referee on Saturday, Jan. 29, Reigns ran in with a devastating spear. He then demanded the WWE Championship belt from Heyman, who obliged. The title itself delivered the final blow to Brock. All Lashley had to do was muster a cover.
Scroll through our gallery to see every WWE Champion ever, ranked by their number(s) of title wins. Remember: this is a list of those who won the WWWF Championship, the WWF Championship or the WWE Championship. So don't come after us, Universal Champions, et al.
