Ronda Rousey: WWE Was "Needlessly Stressful"
Ronda Rousey shoots on the possibility of ever launching a WWE return.
Ronda Rousey wasn't happy with how many changes WWE officials made late in the day during her second stint with the company. In fact, the ex-UFC fighter turned pro wrestler found all of that "needlessly stressful", and has argued it didn't give her work much of a chance to turn heads or even really succeed.
The former WWE star told WrestleZone that her second go-around was "just such a negative experience". Rousey regularly clashed with members of management about what was going on, and has been very outspoken about the promotion's culture behind the scenes since leaving.
If interviewers keep asking Ronda about WWE, she'll keep answering.
Specifically, Rousey was annoyed when agents cut her time at the eleventh hour or made any other changes she found "stressful" and unnecessary. She even started writing more away from the ring as a "refuge" from all of the noise.
In closing, Ronda said she's "heard from the girls [still with WWE] that it’s so much better, but it’s kind of hard to shake that and be excited to come back like I was before".
