Ronda rousey walmart

Ronda rousey walmart, Walk into around any Wal-Mart and you’ll realize a full section stuffed with MMA gear and accessories. You’ll have a tougher time, however, finding UFC champion Ronda Rousey’s new memoir, “My Fight/Your Fight.” the shop confirmed to Jezebel in the week that it'll not show the title on its in-store shelves, however instead solely supply customers the chance to buy the book on-line.

Why? ESPN and therefore the ny Post each rumored last week the content was thought-about “too violent” for the shop, that displays and sells copies of “American marksman,” “Walking Dead” graphic novels and, oh yeah, shot guns. this is often simply the story of AN Olympic athlete’s life and career. What may presumably be thus offensive?

Wal-Mart representative Danit Marquadt refused to expound upon the reasoning behind the store’s ostensibly confusing call.

“There’s a range of things that we glance at once deciding what things to supply our customers,” she aforementioned (via Jezebel). “At now we’ve chosen to supply this specific title to our customers on-line. We’ll still watch however customers respond.”

Meanwhile, Rousey’s brushing Wal-Mart’s call off like she did her last opponent, whom she submitted in fourteen seconds. She announce a screen shot of AN inaccurate headline and intercalary the caption:

” ‘Success is that the best revenge’ one in every of several lessons I learned from fighting that helped American state fight through life’s battles off the mat and outdoors the polygonal shape. @walmart is welcome to observe the success of this publication from the sidelines if they opt for.

Ronda rousey walmart, Ronda Rousey has responded to Wal-Mart banning the sale of her book in their stores.

Yahoo! reported last week that the giant store banned sales of Rousey’s upcoming memoir, “My Fight/Your Fight,” because they deem her to be too violent. They were allowing people to order her book through their website, though.

On Wednesday, Rousey posted on Instagram about the matter with the adage that “success is the best revenge.”

“Success is the best revenge” one of many lessons I learned from fighting that helped me fight through life’s battles off the mat and outside the octagon. @walmart is welcome to watch the success of this publication from the sidelines if they choose.

Rousey’s book “My Fight/Your Fight” is for sale on Amazon with a May 12 release date. Here is the description of the book:

In this revealing memoir, undefeated UFC champion and Hollywood star Ronda Rousey charts her difficult path to glory, revealing her tragic childhood and her father’s suicide, her meteoric rise to fame, the secret behind her undefeated UFC record, and what it takes to become the toughest woman on Earth.

As Yahoo! pointed out, it seems hypocritical that Wal-Mart sells guns and ammunition in their store but deems what Rousey does in the Octagon as too violent.

Rousey, the undefeated UFC women’s bantamweight champion, has been proving people wrong her entire life. It wasn’t that long ago that Dana White said there wouldn’t be women in the UFC, and now Rousey is one of their biggest stars. She has also been deemed “too sexy” for magazines before, so she is used to this sort of thing.
