Ronda Rousey names the male WWE star she confronted after he pulled a string on her sweatpants... as she blasts the company's sexist culture that surrounded Vince McMahon

Ronda Rousey revealed which male WWE star she confronted after he pulled a string on her sweatpants.

The franchise has been criticised in recent months for the ongoing scandal surrounding Vince McMahon, who became centre of sex trafficking allegations early on this year and resigned from his role at TKO. 

While the 37-year-old Rousey, who fought in WWE from 2018 until leaving last October, said she never faced any misconduct from McMahon directly, she mentioned that another fighter did something that she did not like.

Drew Gulak, who currently wrestles in NXT, was accused of the inappropriate actions in a public hallway, despite being 'barely an acquaintance' to Rousey at the time.

She said that the incident highlighted the culture at the company, as no other WWE employees stepped in despite what was happening in front of their eyes.

Rousey told NewsNation: 'Nobody around me acted as if it was abnormal. All the guys around me were like, "This is just part of the day".'

She later confronted Gulak, telling him if he pulled a similar stunt, to her or another woman, then 'we're going to have a problem' - and he quickly backpedaled, and thanked her for calling him out.

She added: 'I’m like, if this guy is coming up to me and doing this kind of stuff to me where there are other people around, what’s happening to these other girls when it’s not in a hallway?'

Rousey felt that no one else was speaking out on the problem because they fear 'negative repercussions' from the WWE.

She added: 'Everybody's being held hostage by their careers, but since I don't plan on going back there unless they make some very major changes, I don't really care if they have me back or not.

'I can wrestle where ever I want to wrestle, and the truth should be told.' 

Gulak responded to the news on X (formerly Twitter), by writing: 'Backstage at a WWE event in 2022, I saw Ronda talking with a group in the hallway. 

'I stopped to say hi and shake all their hands, and in an attempt to shake her hand, I accidentally touched her drawstring. 

'Complete accident, and one that I had apologized to her for the mishap.'

Previously, she had described WWE as an 'absolute s*** show', and vowed never to return to the franchise. 

She said: 'It's hard sometimes to know where the evil, unethical, slimeball character of Vince McMahon played out for the cameras ends and the actual questionably ethical, many times sued, and multiple times accused of sexual misconduct Vince McMahon begins... .'

Rousey competed in the first women's match to headline WrestleMania after joining in 2018

In another interview, Rousey admitted her fears for the future, having suffered from concussion symptoms for 'most of the year' during her UFC career, before making the transition to WWE in 2018. 

While with WWE, Rousey competed in the first women's match to headline WrestleMania, in a three-way bout with Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch.

Lynch won the triple-threat contest in one of Rousey's only pinfall loses in her time with WWE.

Rousey's last match with WWE took place last summer against fellow former MMA competitor Shayna Baszler, who came out on top.
