McGregor commented on the transition of Rousey to WWE

"I'm delighted with this news. She looked very happy at this event, and I'm incredibly happy for her. Ronda is a pioneer in our sport, she went through a lot - faced with great victories and crushing defeats, but managed to cope with all this. It's great to watch how she is happy to present herself and mixed martial arts in WWE. I know that she has been a fan of WWE throughout her life, and it's nice to see that she is now engaged in this business," said the Irishman.
