WWE Personality Blasts Ronda Rousey Over ‘Classless’ Comments
Ronda Rousey has been openly critical of her time in WWE.
In many interviews, The Arm Collector has expressed frustration with WWE’s creative. During an appearance on The Lapsed Fan podcast, Rowdy Ronda called her SummerSlam match with Alexa Bliss “f***ing ridiculous,” stating the primary reason for their rivalry was Bliss’s popularity in merchandise sales, not creative direction or athletic storyline. She voiced disappointment, feeling her goals in WWE were sidelined in favor of business interests.
Ronda Rousey Complains a Lot About WWE, Says Peter Rosenberg
Ronda Rousey’s comments didn’t sit right with wrestling personality Peter Rosenberg, who blasted her on the latest episode of the Wrestling With Rosenberg podcast. Rosenberg disapproved of her remarks regarding Alexa Bliss’s match, calling her ungrateful towards the company that elevated her to the next level of stardom.
I thought her in-ring work had a realism that made her potentially interesting, but you are talking about someone who came from another world with more hype than you could possibly imagine, then was gifted Rowdy Roddy Piper’s entire gimmick. Was given a fire expensive theme song to use, got all the bells and whistles, all the big treatment, everything that you could imagine.
And all we hear her [Ronda Rousey] do is complain about her time in WWE. And I’m not saying she doesn’t say more than that. And it doesn’t make news. I bet she has said positive things, and people just don’t talk about it. And that is a shame on all of us.
That is the way the world works. But SGG this week for her to sort of not sort of blatantly criticize the fact that she worked with Alexa Bliss as if Bliss was somehow beneath her was yet another example of just Ronda Rousey needing to pry her foot out of her mouth. And listen, maybe there’ll be an opportunity where someone, certainly worse things have been done, and people have been forgiven and came back.
I’m not trying to say she is, you know, she should get the death penalty. Like, this is not the ultimate sin or anything, but like, can you just have a little class and not bury the people who work in the business day in and day out? This is a — This is a business that gave you a lot of money, a lot of fame, and you did quite well doing it, and you left when you wanted to. And I’m sure it wasn’t all perfect. Nobody’s job is.”
