Former WWE star Ronda Rousey appeared on Insight With Chris Van Vliet, where she talked about a number of topics including Triple H doing a better job of running WWE than Vince McMahon.
Rousey said, “I’ve heard it’s a lot better. But yeah, that wasn’t my experience before. My experience before was like if you showed up to Saturday Night Live and no one had written the show yet, like you hadn’t been filming it and practicing it all week. It was like, you just showed up and you had to negotiate what the script was going to be until the very last second. Even if we killed it and had such a great time while we were out there, it was just the needless anxiety of getting to the finish line just made it so not fun. So, unfortunately, it’s kind of put a gross kind of a film on the incredible experience. I hear from everybody that’s so much better now, and I’m happy for them. But it’s also, I got babies, I can’t be taking them on the road. I did it for a little bit with one, I can’t do that with two. It was hard on my husband for us not all to be there all the time. I just don’t think I can ask them to sacrifice that anymore.”
On not caring about what McMahon thought about her matches:
“No, no. I don’t give a s**t about that. I didn’t really give a f**k what Vince thought, to be honest. I just wanted to have a great match. Sometimes I felt like instead of enabling us to have a great match, we were fighting against him in order to have a great match. No, once it was done and all that, once I was in there and in the moment and lost in it, there’s no better feeling than when you’re in it and you believe the story and you’re out there with your friends and you’re having a blast. It was like, we had to march through, what were the marshes called in Lord of the Rings? The Dead Marshes. Or Never Ending Story, I was just going through the Swamps of Sadness, just trying to be able to walk into the arena. Then once the music hit, I was like, f**k you, we’re gonna have a great time. Then we come back, and then I come back to the curtain. I’m like, f**k you, I’m going to my baby. I don’t want to hear sh*t unless you actually have a plan for next week, which you don’t. You don’t have a f*cking plan. I’m trying to get any information all week long, and then no one’s gonna tell me s**t until I get to the arena, and I’m still not gonna hear anything for hours.”
