10 Things Nobody Wants To Admit About WWE WrestleMania 34

4. Ronda Rousey Is Still A Trainee

Ronda Rousey is one hell of an athlete. There's no denying that, and it'd be foolish to claim otherwise.

In MMA, Rousey proved how machine-like she can be, and yet there are no guarantees that she will look good inside a WWE ring without proper pro wrestling training. WWE are giving Ronda every chance, yes, but (and this is a big but) she's untested in a worked environment when the pressure is on.

Rousey looked nervous during her first few promo appearances in WWE. Hopefully, that doesn't translate to her actions at 'Mania, because the promotion really need Ronda to knock this one out of the park and prove herself a valuable asset to the female ranks.

Maybe it's smart of the writers to acknowledge Ronda's lack of experience as a wrestler in hype packages on Raw. The same could be said for Stephanie McMahon's gleeful boasts that Rousey is entering her world now, and she fully expects to win.

Despite being a world-class athlete, Rousey is still a pro wrestling rookie. That's inarguable.
