Ronda Rousey Slams WWE & Says Wrestling Is Fake and She is done with WWE??
In 2019, former UFC fighter Ronda Rousey made controversial comments about WWE, stating that wrestling is “fake” and that she does not have any respect for the business. Rousey, who had a successful run in WWE from 2018 to 2019, made the comments during an appearance on the “Wild Ride!” podcast.
During the interview, Rousey discussed her time in WWE and the difficulties she faced transitioning from MMA to professional wrestling. She also criticized the scripted nature of WWE matches, saying that she prefers real fights where there are no predetermined outcomes.
“I love the WWE. I had such a great time. It was the best decision of my life,” Rousey said. “But, yeah, it’s not a real fight. I wouldn’t even call it a real sport. It’s just, uh, it’s a show. It’s a show. It’s not real. It’s fake. It’s scripted.”
Rousey’s comments sparked a backlash from wrestling fans and wrestlers alike. Many in the industry felt that Rousey’s remarks were disrespectful and undermined the hard work that goes into creating a successful wrestling match.
Despite the controversy, Rousey has not completely ruled out a return to WWE or professional wrestling in the future. However, her comments have left a lasting impact on the industry, with many fans and wrestlers still debating the validity of her claims.
