Rousey was inducted alongside MMA legend Bas Rutten, The Amazing Race host Phil Keoghan, and world powerlifting champions Dr. Terry Todd and Dr. Jan Todd.
Raw General Manager Kurt Angle was also in attendance.
The festival, presented by WWE Hall of Famer Arnold Schwarzennegger, was founded in 1989.
- As seen in the video below, Shayna Baszler launched a surprise attack on Dakota Kai at Thursday's NXT live event in Columbus, Ohio.
The attack came after Kai beat Lacey Evans in a singles match. Kai got retribution later in the show as she struck Baszler when "The Queen of Spades" faced Kairi Sane. As a result, Baszler beat Sane via disqualification.
