Ronda Rousey, Vince McMahon

Ronda Rousey – “It’s hard sometimes to know where the evil, unethical, slimeball character of Vince McMahon played out for the cameras ends”

Following a career in mixed martial arts, former UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey turned to professional wrestling where she worked for Vince McMahon and the WWE.

Speaking in her autobiography Our Fight, Rousey let her feelings be known about McMahon who recently stepped down from his role in the company after allegations of misconduct.

“NXT was founded by and under the control of Triple H, real name Paul Levesque,” Rousey said as transcribed by Covalent TV. “In addition to being my in-ring WrestleMania nemesis, he is arguably one of the best professional wrestlers in history and one of the better people on the business side. He is married to Stephanie McMahon, who is the daughter of WWE’s Emperor Palpatine, Vince McMahon. Vince took over the company from his father in the early 1980s and spent the better part of forty years playing a real-world pro-wrestling version of Monopoly, buying up and absorbing smaller promotions until he basically owned them all.

It’s hard sometimes to know where the evil, unethical, slimeball character of Vince McMahon played out for the cameras ends and the actual questionably ethical, many times sued, and multiple times accused of sexual misconduct Vince McMahon begins. That blurred line between character and reality is a recurring theme within the WWE Universe.

[Pay-per-views are] held in major cities like New York, Los Angeles, and Philadelphia, as well as now twice a year in Saudi Arabia, a nation that restricts the rights of women in a way that I’m certain Vince McMahon wishes he could.”
