Sounds like the perfect person to build your women's division around...

Anyone else hope that Becky brings Holly Holm to Wrestlemania with her? Not to get involved, just to sit in the front row to play mind games with Ronda.
I guess that IS getting involved, then. Never mind.

Recently turned heel says “f*ck you” to the fans, i’m 100% fine with this, it’s a lot better than calling them “fickle” lol I know I double posted but it was too late lol. Shouldn't a good heel be the other way around though? As in the fans tell her to go f*ck herself!

I like this Ronda. She' very much like the Ronda from TUF who won me over when she said "I'd rather be real mean than fake nice." I could do without her breaking kayfabe quite so much - respect the business - but at the same time this is a character she can play well. Would love to see a segment or tag match with Natalya where Ronda ends up obliterating her. I feel like that would help cement everything nicely.

The fans have been sh*tting on Ronda for the past year, she literally did a Rocky Maivia heel turn where she was constantly booed as a face, had enough and turned.

This match has been so over-produced, I mean geez. I stopped caring weeks ago. Oversaturation, a triple threat that still isn't needed, it wasn't this hard bruh.

I'm not gonna click on the video but I'm stating on record that I NEVER liked Rousey in the WWE and didnt care for her in the UFC. The only times I ever watched her matches were when she got KTFO. So if anyone says that I jumped on the Hating Ronda bandwagon, look at my history of posts.

That was almost as bad as her voice acting for Sonya Blade. Actually it wasn't even close, her voice acting is almost ruining the game.

Man I never did get all the hate for Ronda. She respects the business more than a lot of other wrestlers. How can you blame Ronda for being put in the position she’s in? She’s a big name. Of course they are going to push her based on her history. In my opinion she’s never had a bad match and she seems to give it her all when she wrestles. And her promos have more of a “real feel” than most of the other cookie cutter promise that are written by other people. If someone told you go out to the ring and cut a promo and say whatever you want can you really blame her? Would you rather she say the same old crap that every other person says over and over?

Far, far, far too much kayfabe breaking going on at the moment. I don't care if everybody knows the ins and outs of professional wrestling nowadays. You wouldn't watch a regular TV show and have the cast breaking character constantly throughout. Why should wrestling be any different? You wouldn't be watching Doctor Who and have Jodie Whittaker pause and say "you know this time travel plot? It's not real". And how does it make any sense for a wrestler to belittle the industry they're in? It's Brock Lesnar "I don't watch the show, Paul!" all over again... Breaking character like the Four Horsewomen embracing at TakeOver: Brooklyn, that's the kind of kayfabe breaking I can support. It gives the audience more reason to care. But having a wrestler break character to take the piss out of the industry and feed into the common misconception that non-wrestling fans have? That's bullcrap. I was a fan of Ronda after her amazing performance at WrestleMania 34, but I really don't give a crap about her anymore after what creative have had her say for the past couple of weeks on social media. I never had a problem with Brock saying “I don’t watch the show.” and he’s even said he doesn’t give a damn about the fans. It fits who he is, the guy that shows up to fight and get paid, that’s how he has been built. Where as Ronda has been built as a badass who is a life long WWE fan and loved the business to now crap on it. I wonder what Hotrod would say. Ya kidding? Roddy would love it. I don't agree with all the swearing, it shows a lack of imagination, but this is the day of knowing that wrestling is a farce. The veil has been torn off a long time ago. Ronda is doing a heel promo and I like it. You want people to boo you? This is what you need to do. The lost art of heeling is just that, lost. So you have to do what you have to do. If this gets people to react? Then it's working. But yeah. Knowing Piper, he'd be smiling.

I've hated her since she first debuted. This only makes me hate her more. I hope Becky beats the crapout of her at WM.

This basically just paints her into a corner creatively. I mean how is she going to explain selling any “fake, scripted wrestling” moves going forward without looking like a complete buffoon? It's like the Cena vs. Reigns feud. Cena breaks kayfabe and chews Reigns out because he can't cut a promo like a top guy, says he can't carry the company like he did so how do they solve it? By having a scripted wrestling match where Reigns wins. Cena then goes on RAW Talk and admits he was wrong about Reigns just because he defeated him.

LOL The 30 seconds of dead air plus Roman referring to Cena's golden burial "shuffle" killed me! Such a crud match though. Never care to watch that again. But back on topic, Ronda will likely admit to Becky having toughness and tenacity after Mania. Like a rub from BIG RONDA would actually have an effect on Lynch's popularity at this point.

She’s not. This direction is all about getting her over as a heel online. It’s working. And it’s definitely weird, but somehow still less weird than Triple H’s “this is a real shoot feud now Batista” promo.
