Ronda Rousey Quote Becomes A Movie, MMA VP Wants Brock Lesnar Vs. Fedor, Rousey Movie Role Changed
- Despite her UFC 193 loss to Holly Holm, the movie and television deals keep rolling in for Ronda Rousey. Her now famous "Don't be a do nothing b—h" line is being turned into a film, in which she'll be featured in. Deadline reported that Universal acquired the idea for Do Nothing b—–s, which will also star Tina Fey.
The news isn't all good for Rousey however, as concerns of her ability to carry a scene will see her role in the upcoming Mile 22 film reduced. Despite being in several major motion pictures, Rousey's appearances have been limited to action scenes. According to Fox Sports Rousey's role is said to be mostly action with less acting involved.
Rousey will also host tonight's episode of Saturday Night Live on NBC.

- If you thought the pitches for Brock Lesnar to do MMA were over, you'd be wrong. Rizin VP Jerry Millen told Submission Radio that he'd love to set up Brock Lesnar or Wanderlei Silva to fight Fedor Emelianenko (transcript courtesy of Bloody Elbow).
"If Brock wants to fight, we would definitely entertain it. I know Fedor, you know, we've talked about it. I know Brock is wrapped up in the WWE, I just don't know what his...I'm sure he still has a contract, I think he still has a contract in place with the UFC. So I don't know. They would never, never allow that to happen. So if he doesn't have a contract with the UFC, sure it could happen. You know, the WWE, Stephanie's over there running a great show and Vince, and I know they were big Pride fans, and Shane McMahon was actually a huge Pride fan and also like a bigger Fedor fan. And so yeah, it could happen if Brock says he wants to come out. But yeah, I think he's under UFC contract. But we'd definitely take him," said Millen.
