Ronda Rousey makes body slamming a SNL cast member look effortless

Kelsey Hendrix | Jan 20, 2016

Live from New York, it's (almost) Saturday Night!

Mark your calendars and set your DVRs, because you do NOT want to miss Saturday Night Live this weekend when UFC star Ronda Rousey exits the Octagon to take on role of SNL host. Ronda will be joined by pop sensation Selena Gomez during this week's episode, and based on the promo material released today, it promises to be one of the program's best shows in recent history.

Joined by SNL cast member Beck Bennett, Ronda sports a super sexy red dress as she gives fans a first glance at her knack for humor and ability to seamlessly blend toughness with comedy. Be sure to watch the clip above to see Ronda wreck 'The Wreck' when his infamous Noggin Lock move turns into a really, really embarrassing body slam.
