I think she could be pretty good tbh. Long as they play her character right.

Her fall from grace from UFC will hurt her mystique. Hopefully they make her character in WWE a badass but not where they make her to be like unstoppable or something. Cuz lord knows every person's last memory of her is her getting annihilated in her last two fights.
People are fukking morons with short memories, hence George w bush having a positive approval rating. They'll push she was an ass kicker that was a the forefront of the women's empowerment movement in the mainstream and people will forget she got her ass handed to her

Did Brock come back jobbing since he got ko'd in UFC? :jagfan:

Remains to be seen if she can make the transition to being a wrestler and all that goes with it, obvious its an entire different animal than fighting. But mystique/intimidation factor is not an issue seeing as she'd obviously destroy any woman on the roster in a shoot situation and WWE will be sure to play that up.

But no one seems to make the coli as collectively furious and illogical like Rousey, so reading these takes is entertaining :pachaha:

Her music was funny but dope at the same time.

She bad as hell too.
Her signing full time is a big deal regardless of how people feel about her. Correct me if I'm wrong but that means she's doing house shows, travel, and all that.


Freeks and Geeks :wow:

WWE Dropped cash for licensed Joan Jett. She better be a fukking cash cow, Jett ain't cheap.



NFL copped her song for SNF for a few.

What if she’s actually good as a pro wrestler? Like transitioned quickly like Kurt Angle good? :ohhh:

That TSC face turn if that ever happens :lolbron:

Kurt already had the foundation with Greco Roman. The transition wasn't that hard to make. She's a brawler who fought and was protected by Dana White. Lesnar was also a champion wrestler at U of Minn before making the transition to "wrestling".

Is she really going to Smackdown? RAW seems the more obvious choice.
She could go to Smackdown as it's an easy way to give Charlotte a high profile match for Mania, and Char could carry Rousey in a way we know Bliss can't.

However, Raw is the flagship show, and they did just set up her vs Asuka. So idk.

She'll be just another woman on the roster within 6 months. Unfortunately.

Yup, and Asuka already is a better Ronda than Ronda at this point. She's dominated like Goldberg for almost 3 years now, shyt's unprecedented.

With her judo background, the grappling, throws and landing techniques, she has a good foundation to start off with. Now the hardest thing for her will be understanding of timing and psychology. Also trusting the opponent, because let's be honest only a couple of the women know how to do a proper carry job/walk an opponent thru a match.

They may end up setting her up for failure if they don't have her with someone that can carry her to a respectable match. Shayna Baszler has been wrestling for two years and she has a long way to go in terms of wrestling. MMA works in wrestling in some aspects, but they can't have her out there trying to apply an arm bar for 10 minutes and not doing anything else.
Her matches will probably be booked the way Brock matches use to. Dominating majority of the time

Kurt spent a year developing before they put him on TV. She's going to probably have a high profile match with a few months of training. That shyt is going to be tough as hell.
