Ronda Rousey talks about returning to WWE

About what I expected. Wrestling in WWE was a bucket list item for her, and she got a lengthy title run as well as working two Manias including a main event. Not much else for her to do.

slik 04-11-2020 12:44 AM

The most memorable part of this interview she did with Steve-O for me was her complaining about how winning an Olympic Medal was useless since she didn't make any money from it.

teamXtremist 04-11-2020 12:45 AM

Lol calling it fake fighting, and then shitting on the fans

slik 04-11-2020 03:53 AM

Meltzer said on his board this wasn't a work and that is legit how Ronda feels about WWE fans.

Damian Rey 2.0 04-11-2020 04:05 AM

Wtf is she talking about? She got a huge reaction at her first mania. And didn't the fans get behind her until the Becky feud?

shes a good working heel, she grew up and was trained with a wrestling promoter. ether way if she comes back she would be a great heel.

Bad News Gertner 04-11-2020 08:26 AM

Remember when Meltzer said she was leaving and the entire internet shit on him.

Still waiting for all of those apologies to Dynamite Dave

Volare 04-11-2020 08:43 AM

Heel turn, pair her with Heyman NOW. This could be the golden goose who sets up the women's division. Leave Becky and Charlotte the fuck away, yes could be the first 2 to face Rhonda, but let them get smashed. Heyman has his new cash cow and we have a heel to boo cause she literally is there for the $ and pretty much told us to fuck off.

James Steele 04-11-2020 12:03 PM

She’s setting up a heel run whenever she feels like returning.

Guess the roster got permission to attack Ronda online since several of them already did. Only notable one that went to Ronda's defense was Baszler.

Nia Jax already threatened to beat her up for real the next time they are in the ring.

Huge soft egos :rofl:

That's ironic coming from the drama queen that went into hiding after her UFC losses and allegedly considered suicide.

:rofl: please. Nia being big and fat means nothing unless she's somehow a trained fighter. Rousey would eat her up so bad she'd leave with diabetes.

To be fair, there is a reason for weight classes.

Not saying Ronda wouldn't destroy Nia, but Nia could certainly do serious damage if she did get a hold of Ronda.

Damian Rey 2.0 04-11-2020 08:51 PM

Assuming she knows how to actually fight and throw punches, yes. The idea that Nia thinks she can beat up a trained mixed martial artist is laughable.

Seanny One Ball 04-11-2020 08:53 PM

Watching her documentary on Netflix right now.

Gary Stretch directing, a classic "Should have been the world champion" boxer.
Also a very good actor.

teamXtremist 04-11-2020 09:11 PM

Ronda is a real fighter. This isnt a work ,its a shoot, and rousey doesnt give a fck

Sepholio 04-11-2020 10:41 PM

Meh. I was never really into Ronda myself. I mean yeah, she's a legit fighter and everything but I always found her to be super bland and boring. Also feel like she's super sloppy in the ring, though I think thats a by product of her being a real fighter and not worrying about what looks good and if she does things cleanly. Her not coming back has no effect on me or my interest in the product.

Still think this is a work to have her come back as a heel though. Between her comments and Nia openly shooting on her, and the fact that she was at HQ like a month ago, this just reeks of work to me. Feel like if she really had no interest in coming back that she wouldn't have travelled to HQ, she'd have just phoned it in and said "not interested."

She just wouldn't mean to.

Meh, modern wrestlers are a bunch of fakes. I don't blame her for being shitty with them and the fans. Wrestling isn't fun these days. So gentrified.

Mr. Nerfect 04-12-2020 06:04 AM

Guys used to actually beat people up to defend it, but now they just dogpile on Twitter and then backtrack if it turns out they have a military background.

No she couldn’t you numbskull

Sepholio 04-12-2020 06:59 AM

I dunno about that. If they really fought and Nia managed to land a solid blow to Rondas head she could probably knock her out rather easily. It would be hard for her to do it given the speed difference and Rondas superior skill, but that punchers chance is still there.

Kinda like Floyd Mayweather Jr and Big Show back in the day. If Big Show somehow managed to land a clean KO punch on Floyd in a real fight he could have killed him.

Sepholio 04-12-2020 07:04 AM

Also consider that a lot of Rondas offense wouldn't be nearly as effective against someone the size of Nia as opposed to her normal opponents. She'd have to strike her a fair bit more and it would be much harder for her to put some of her holds/submissions on someone Nias size if she was seriously fighting back. There's a lot to consider here.

Still think Ronda would murder her in the end, prob via some sort of choke, but I don't think it would be as cut and dry as some of ya'll seem to think. Nia is more than twice the size of Ronda. That's not a small difference.

Sepholio 04-12-2020 07:06 AM

tbf though if it was done in a wrestling ring that would highly favor Ronda. In a cage if Nia somehow managed to get Ronda pinned against the side of the cage it would prove troublesome to Ronda. In the ring she can escape and regroup if Nia got close to "trapping" her.

Well i'm 5'5 and knocked out this 6ft fat bitch in HS that thought i liked her bf.

Ben Rodrigues 04-12-2020 07:14 AM

Ronda would crush Nia Jax. Armbar in one.

Anything is better than her 'walkout, smile and wave at the fans' persona. That's why she gets booed. Nobody got time for that.

Big Show is a giant though and even then doesn’t have much of a chance against Floyd in a strict boxing match (Floyd can’t fight mma). Nia Jaxx is just a big hoss with literally less that half a percentage of the toughness of the women Ronda has iced. She has the same “punchers chance” as Bart Gunn had against Butterbean at WM15. She would get fucking killed

Ronda is an Olympic Judoka, you don’t think she could just dump nia’s highly uncoordinated ass on her head, trapped or not? Come on.

Ronda would knock the fuck outta people

Sepholio 04-12-2020 08:03 AM

Ronda weighs like 130, Nia is close to 300. That is a massive difference in size. Nia is a giant as far as women go. That is a weight that Ronda has no experience dealing with in a real fight. I readily admitted Ronda would murder her but ya'll are seriously neglecting the size/strength difference. All it takes is Ronda making one mistake and Nia landing that lucky shot and she would hurt tf out of Ronda.

And don't give me that toughness argument. You know as well as I do that a strike against someone that weighs 130 is going to do way more damage than that same strike hitting someone who weighs 300. Xrod is dead on pointing out that there is a reason for weight classes. Big people can hurt small people a hell of a lot easier than the other way around.

Bringing up Butterbean as well? He outweighed Bart Gunn by 160 pounds bro, was far stronger, AND he was the pro fighter. Butterbean had the advantage in all 3 aspects of that scenario. Ronda has the pro advantage against Nia, but loses the strength and size battle by a wide margin. There is no legitimate comparison to be made between those 2 matchups. That's why I compared it to the Bigshow/Mayweather set up, because they pan out similarly. Floyds the better fighter, Show had the size and strength advantage.

Ronda isn't a knockout artist. She's not known for her striking and got her ass kicked by 2 good strikers. She only had 2 or 3 knockouts in her career if I recall. She's a submission specialist.

Sepholio 04-12-2020 08:09 AM

Ronda didn't even last a minute against Amanda Nunez before she got knocked tf out and quit forever lol
