WATCH: UFC women’s champ Rousey stars as superhero in new commercial

That’s some serious girl power.

Beautiful UFC women’s champion Ronda Rousey, the undisputed baddest woman on the planet, has added superhero to her list of titles.

At least, she’ll be playing one on TV.

Rousey stars as “The Insureon Protector” in the latest commercial for Insureon, an insurance company for small businesses. In the two-minute spot, she beats up multiple men who are trying to bully a female entrepreneur, using punches, kicks, judo throws and even her trademark armbar submission move.

“We wanted to do something different to highlight that small-business owners have someone in their corner 24-7,” Ted Devine, CEO of Insureon, told MMA Mania. “Ronda Rousey as the Insureon Protector perfectly exemplifies our commitment to protecting the little guy. We will use YouTube and digital media to send the message that the real heroes of the U.S. economy have Insureon and the Insureon Protector to help them and protect their businesses.”

Rousey is also featured on the front page of Insureon’s web site. The ripped, 26-year-old blonde is no stranger to fighting for women’s advancement. She single-handedly persuaded UFC president Dana White to bring female fighting to his organization. Rousey was crowned the UFC’s first women’s bantamweight champion and went on to win the first women’s bout in company history in February, beating Liz Carmouche with an armbar in the first round.

Rousey has quickly become one of the UFC’s biggest stars due to her skills, looks and charisma. She’ll be getting serious television time this fall when she coaches against Miesha Tate on the 18th season of “The Ultimate Fighter” reality series. Then she’ll defend her title against her heated rival in December.

Tate better watch out for “The Insureon Protector.”
