What if I told you Bethe Correia messed up?
What if she signed her very own death warrant the moment she made a dumb suicide remark to Ronda Rousey?
What if I told you this fight was over months ago, long before Ronda Rousey unmoored Correia's brain from its faculties 34 seconds into the first round of their main event showdown at UFC 190?
You would believe me, because pissing off Rousey has been proved to be a zero-sum game, and there's enough fodder and cold, historical evidence out there to make an ESPN 30 For 30 of the perils that come with poking the UFC's scariest bear.
With this in mind, The Big Lead's Rob Perez crafted an excellent parody of the ESPN documentary series, previewing what truly could—and should—be an actual full-length project showcasing the UFC's most dangerous game:

I Should Not Have Pissed Off Ronda Rousey is almost a dead lock for an Emmy. It is a tale of tragedy, loss and the human spirit being beaten into the downward facing dog.
We can all learn from it and grow stronger, and maybe—just maybe—avoid getting beaten into the Earth's mantle by Ronda Rousey. It's a long shot, but we have to try.
Dan is on Twitter. What if he told you that Correia is still in the ring, drooling onto an ad for Straight Outta Compton?
