Ronda Rousey Talks One Thing She Doesn't Miss About WWE

[Buffy]

Ronda Rousey recently spoke with Stephanie Chase of Digital Spy to promote the new World of Warcraft Shadowlands video game and said the one thing she does not miss about WWE is the travel.

Rousey noted that being on the road was her least favorite part of the WWE job. She recalled how Sarah Logan told her that she wrestles for free, but gets paid to travel. Rousey also commented on how she had issues with her back due to the bumps and the traveling.

"I love wrestling but I think it was maybe Sarah Rowe (Sarah Logan) who told me this, she wrestles for free but they pay her to travel," she said. "The hardest part I think was just not being able to lay down horizontally, you know. Taking a bunch of hard bumps, your back hurts and you just want to lay down.

​

"All I wanted to do between shows is lay down with my legs up and traveling you're just sitting upright all the time and my back would kill me. So the actual act of traveling I do not miss it all, it was the absolute worse."

Rousey said traveling was extra painful for her due to a back injury she suffered before signing with WWE.

"My bottom vertebrae in my back is actually broken in half," she added. "So that has something to do with it. But traveling on a broken back is the absolute worst. I love being home on my extra firm Tempur-Pedic mattress every night."

Rousey has been away from WWE since the WrestleMania 35 main event in 2019. She remains under contract through WrestleMania 37 in 2021, and has been rumored to return in time for a match at The Grandest Stage of Them All. Stay tuned for more on her status.

Well that's a given.

Her back was.broken because she was carrying women's wrestling on her back and walking it towards a Wrestlemania main event.

Thank her ladies.....yall ain't anywhere near that anymore.

All stars wants to just rest up but they never get to since they have to wrestle every single week, sometimes every few days. Let's get the real meat and potatoes here. Ronda just couldn't handle the WWE business nor schedule.

 

[Deezy]

Puhleaze she's the only one to do actual business.

No one else could or has since.

 

[Dale]

More Ronda whining, who woulda thought it.

 

[Deezy]

People interview her and she answers..... that equals whining somehow.....the Bret Hart is bitter logic.

 

[Lady Redfield]

Kinda wondering why enter the wrestling business when one's back is snapped?

 

[Sabretooth]

Lmao here go again Deezy acting like she’s the only good woman on the roster. WWE survived without her before and they can after. She was solid but wasn’t some godsend. Her wrestling was good, her promos were average. She always seemed like she was trying way too hard. Her heel turn promo honestly made me laugh and I don’t think that was the reaction I was supposed to have.

That being said, I wouldn’t consider her whining. She’s just stating how she felt. She wasn’t really criticizing WWE for making her travel. She’s just simply stating it was hard for her.

 

[Kiffy Lube]

No wonder she isn't back.

 

[Deezy]

Women's evolution stopped evolving when she left....do the math.

No wonder she isn't back.

[Carter]

I liked Ronda she pushed women's wrestling to new heights ever since we have had ffs Lana v nia through tables bet lanas back is hurting .

 

[Swamps]

Women's evolution stopped evolving when she left....do the math.

Yep. Ratings, merch sales, etc don't lie.

 

[Sabretooth]

Women's evolution stopped evolving when she left....do the math.

I mean. It really didn’t though

 

[Deezy]

No all women PPV, focal point feuds that were priority over Universal and World titles.....and most importantly. ...no woman on any outside talk show that any casual fan would watch.

Yeah iT rEaLlY dIdN't
