Becky Lynch on Ronda Rousey: ‘I Mean This With Respect, But She Couldn’t Wrestle’

WWE star Becky Lynch was a guest on The MMA Hour earlier today to promote her new book “ Becky Lynch ‘The Man’: Not Your Average Average Girl .’ While on the show, the subject of former WWE star and MMA legend Ronda Rousey came up. Rousey had a lukewarm run with the WWE and could never connect with the fans or gain backstage support due to her inability to work smoothly in the ring.

Lynch didn’t hold back as she worked with Rousey during the former MMA champion’s run in WWE. “I mean this with respect, but she couldn’t wrestle. Like, what we do isn’t just something that you can have one good match and then, okay, yeah, I’m off to races. It’s a craft and you have to learn your craft. And you have to be diligent about learning your craft. But everybody treated Ronda like she already knew it because when she first came in, she was good in that first bout,” said Lynch.
