She was getting injured a lot training mma. Probably thought Bareknuckle would just be easier to succeed it.

Jokes aside she’s a tough little girl

Yep, she's tough as hell. I remember Rose Namajunas beating on her for five straight rounds and she didn't quit. Wrestling is definitely the easier way out for her...or Bellator/One, where they'd match her with complete cans for years.

This means if/when she does decide to cross over, we're about to get a lot of wrestlers gate keeping and being in their feelings for no reason. :hhh:

I'll never be a "The Marks Are In The Ring" guy, but wrestlers get weird and defensive when athletes from other sports come in and MIGHT be a hit or carve a lane.

I think it’s more the automatic push over the full time wrestlers and that they aren’t even asked to learn to wrestle or used as a attraction.

Very interesting. If she's going to make that jump, she better do it now.

MMA has put a lot of tread on her so this could be her last stop.



And she's always been a freak , long before she got married :shaq:

It’d be one thing if it were just that, but wrestlers get weird with anyone they perceive as an outsider. Like there was a rumor back in 2019 that Joey Janella had contacted the two brehs that do the wrestling skits in Walmart and such and a bunch of indie wrestlers caught feelings.

Or that one football player that did the match in Impact like 3-4 years ago and a few wrestlers were passive aggressive over how everyone thought he was nice in the ring despite being green.

Or Becky coming off as standoffish when that article about Jon Jones thinking about a jump to the E came out last year or the year before.

It’s like they hate the idea of someone coming in and doing them better than they do them
