While speaking to The Kurt Angle Show, Ronda Rousey revealed that she demanded WWE let her finish things with Stephanie McMahon before she signed a contract with the company.

“When I originally signed with them, my only request was that I wanted to finish up my storyline with Stephanie because we kind of left things, you know, not great between us. That was my only request as I wanted to work with Stephanie.”
