Nobody Cares About Ronda Rousey But Herself, Says WWE Legend
One WWE Hall of Famer has hit out at Ronda Rousey, saying that she spat in the face of professional wrestling.
Ronda Rousey burst into WWE in 2018 following the demise of her UFC career. Rousey captured the Raw Women’s Championship and headlined WrestleMania 35 during her first run. She returned at the 2022 Royal Rumble before she went on to win the SmackDown Women’s Title. That run came to an end at 2023’s SummerSlam when she lost in an infamous MMA Rules match against her good friend, Shayna Baszler.
And it seems that friends might have been hard to come by for Rousey in the pro wrestling world.
Ronda Rousey Only Thinks Of Herself, Says Booker T
Speaking on the Reality of Wrestling podcast, Booker T shared his candid thoughts on Rousey and why she isn’t popular in WWE:
Ronda Rousey is another one, man. I think the wrestling world opened the doors to her, and she just spit in the face of professional wrestling. That’s what she’s done.
You know, it’s a reason why people don’t like her, you know? I mean, I don’t hear any of her old comrades in the UFC saying anything good about Ronda Rousey, man… Nobody cares about Ronda Rousey but herself.
She’s got a very, very high, you know, self-esteem, as far as you know, looking at herself a certain way. But I don’t think anybody else you know looks at Ronda that way, just because, there again, I don’t know why she has so much hate and vitriol for the wrestling business.
Ronda Rousey has been outspoken about her frustrations in WWE and blasted both Vince McMahon and Bruce Prichard. It seems unlikely that she’ll ever return to the ring, but she had nothing but praise for both Triple H and Stephanie McMahon.
