The legendary MMA career of Ronda Rousey started with an Armbar entrance in March 2011.
The former UFC Bantamweight Champion is generally considered one of the greatest hunters ever.
'Rowdy' was so good that Joe Rogan publicly supported her to beat 50 percent of men at 135 pounds.
Ronda Rousey did it all during her iconic MMA-Run but It was a technique that the American opponents could not find out how to stop that they could collect a 12-0 record and break off barriers for women in combat sports.

View the MMA debut of Ronda Rousey
After picking up a bronze medal in Judo during the 2008 Olympic Games, Rousey went to MMA.
It soon became clear that she had a favorite entry when she yielded a 3-0 amateur record.
Three hunters were tapped by the Armbar Rousey within a minute was taught by her mother.
So it was not a huge shock when the 38-year-old used the lock during her professional MMA debut.
However, the rapid nature of her first pro victory caused a commotion. The opponent of Rousey, Ediane Gomes, is expected to give a more difficult test because of her 6-1 record and the fact that she pushed UFC legend Amanda Nunes in a second round during her lonely loss.
When the fight started, Rousey closed the distance, started a conflict and bundled Gomes on the floor.
Once there, Rousey locked the Armbar and forced the Brazilian to tap for 25 seconds.
Will Ronda Rousey ever fight again?
Rousey withdrew from MMA after Nunes struck her in 48 seconds in December 2016 at UFC 207.
That loss followed an equally devastating Ko defeat against Holly Holm on UFC 195 in November 2015.
Last year Rousey explained what led her to walk away from MMA at just 29 years old.
The WMMA pioneer had to deal with severe concussion problems that make a comeback unlikely.
Nevertheless, fans continue to become enthusiastic about a potential Rousey return every time they post on social media.
Earlier this week she reunited herself with an old UFC rival that she tapped in 14 seconds, Cat Zingano.
The unlikely duo trained together in viral images that see that Rousey is trying to return to the swing of things after she recently had her second child birth.
Fans will continue to call for a comeback, but it is very unlikely that we will ever see Rousey in the Octagon again.
