Ronda Rousey recently commented on her reaction to the backstage environment in WWE.
Rousey appeared on Bert Kreischerâ€s Bertcast and said she didnâ€t feel any pressure making the move to WWE, though she admitted it could sometimes be stressful working there due to what she called a “s–t show†backstage.
“The funny thing is it was zero pressure, zero stress for me but everybody else who’s done only that their whole life, it’s very stressful,” she said.
“So it’d be kind of funny for me when everyone was all stressed out and I’m like, ‘Guys, weâ€re playing around out here, weâ€re gonna have fun, it’s cool.”
“But there were times I was stressed,” she continued. “When it would be such a s–t show backstage that I would be going out to do a match that I donâ€t even know what it is and have to improvise it out there with zero experience, basically. Or I just got handed some promo that I have to say that I donâ€t believe in that everyone is going to s–t on. Those are kind of stressful experiences.”
“But in general, if you know what the match is and you know it’s going to be a good match, I’d be in a great mood and excited to jump out there.”
Rousey recently shared footage of her training in MMA again, saying she is using it to get back in shape after giving birth to her second child. However, in interviews since, sheâ€s mentioned that she doesnâ€t believe “anyoneâ€s ever really done,†noting Mike Tysonâ€s fight against Jake Paul on Netflix earlier this year. Dana White has said that the door is open for Rousey to return if she ever decides to.
