WWE: Ronda Rousey Needs To Be Careful With Accidentally Dissing Pro Wrestling
ENTERTAINIC news
Ronda Rousey had two excellent WWE Raw Women’s Championship matches in back-to-back nights and does a great job of putting over her opponents in the ring, but she needs to be careful when promoting her own fully legit fighting credentials; she may be inadvertently “exposing” pro wrestling when she kicks down her opponents.
The WrestleMania 35 main event between Becky Lynch and Ronda Rousey feels like WWE‘s most highly-anticipated match in quite some time.
Though Lynch is the must-see wrestler here with the thunderous “Becky! Becky! Becky!” chants she receives on a nightly basis, Rousey has been viewed as the promotion’s biggest mainstream star; it’s star-power she earned by being an Olympic medalist and a UFC Champion.
Rousey is quick to remind wrestling fans of her credentials. She did so on Raw when she told Becky that she could kill her with her bare hands, a claim that I doubt many people would refute. The Raw Women’s Champion doubled-down on this talk in a tweet promoting LaToya Ferguson’s Raw recap published on Rousey’s official site.
“If anyone wants to see a bunch of performers act tough and watch me resist every urge I had to beat the living s–t out of anyone who dared approach me so I don’t get sued or arrested – here’s #Raw recap from yesterday”
While Rousey has done a fabulous job of working with her opponents in the ring and has made a seamless transition to the sport as an actual wrestler, this tweet rightfully received widespread criticism from fans for burying pro wrestling.
