Ronda Rousey: Someone Needs To Completely Clean House At WWE, Hopefully Vince McMahon Is Gone For Good

Ronda Rousey is glad to see Vince McMahon gone.

During her time in the WWE, Ronda Rousey made her surprise debut at the Royal Rumble before having her first official match in the ring at WrestleMania 34 alongside Kurt Angle against the team of Triple H and Stephanie McMahon.

During a conversation on the Rachel Hollis podcast, this is what Rousey had to say about her time in the WWE and her honest thoughts on Vince McMahon.

I didn’t have the greatest experience working for Vince McMahon and all that. It was such a shit show all the time. They would be changing the show all the time until you got out there. A lot of time you’re doing these matches where not only do you not have opportunities to rehearse it, but they change it multiple times, cut your time multiple times, all the things you’re going to say they change multiple times throughout the day. It’s a constantly changing script and choreography,” she said.

I got frustrated to the point where I was like, ‘People aren’t being allowed to do their best work.’ The first match I had was amazing, we had weeks to put it together, the best minds in the industry had a part in it and it was incredible. The main event of WrestleMania was literally thrown together the night before. We’re still putting it together the day we did it. We never got to actually got to do the match itself before we went out there. We were told we weren’t allowed to do powerslams because the guys before us were doing powerslams, which we went out and did anyway. There was a lot of misogynistic bullshit going on there. UFC, they were open to changing and wanted to do what would make the most money. WWE, under Vince McMahon, was what he thinks the world should see, just him pushing his viewpoint onto his viewership, the bottom line, and the wrestlers be damned.

He was there the first time, it just got worse the second time around. Supposedly he’s out now because all the sexual assault stuff has come out. He’s still running it through all his little cronies. They need to completely clean house. Basically, this guy Bruce Prichard, I’ve never heard him say one of his own opinions. It’s just ‘Vince this, Vince that.’ When Vince left before, when it came out he was using company funds to pay off, they found $12 million in hush money that he paid to these women, sexually assaulting them. Of the company’s money. He was supposedly gone, but he was still running the show, just calling it in. Supposedly he’s gone now, but I wouldn’t be going back to work with them anytime soon because the last time he was gone, he was still running the show. Hopefully, he’s completely gone, and they are running in a more responsible way and actually allowing people to rehearse.

Rousey recently released her autobiography ‘Our Fight’ which details her run in the WWE and the things she went through from the front office to the members of the roster.
