Nikkita Lyons is a big fan of the SmackDown Women’s Champion.
It is safe to say Ronda Rousey inspired an entire generation of young women that they could be legit badasses. She was the face of the UFC for a time period and has successfully crossed over into the world of pro wrestling, holding the women’s championship twice in WWE. She also took part in the first women’s WrestleMania main event.
While speaking on ”Out of Character with Ryan Satin,” Nikkita Lyons talked about Ronda Rousey following her on social media. Lyons revealed that she had a poster of Rousey on her wall in middle school and high school, making it clear she always looked up to Rousey as a competitor and a performer:
“I have been looking up to her (Ronda Rousey) forever. When she was making women tap out in 15 seconds, I had a poster of her on my wall throughout middle school and high school.”
