Paul Heyman Says 'WWE Audience Would Embrace Ronda Rousey With Open Arms'

Posted By: Ben Kerin on Mar 29, 2017

Paul Heyman was recently interviewed by  Damien Martin of the Fight Society podcast to promote WrestleMania 33. Below are the highlights:

On if Ronda Rousey still has a future in WWE:

“I think the WWE audience would embrace Ronda Rousey with open arms,” Heyman told the Fight Society podcast this week. “Just her name recognition alone is huge. It doesn’t matter her past two experiences in UFC. All that matters is if she got involved in a story that people could relate to and could sink their teeth into and get excited about.”

On who Rousey would work with in WWE:

“I would personally pay to see Charlotte versus Ronda Rousey. I would personally pay to see Stephanie McMahon versus Ronda Rousey for a completely different reason but why digress,” Heyman explained. “I think Ronda Rousey doing anything in WWE is a natural fit. I’d love to see it and would be happy to discuss with her all of the benefits that she could inure by being a Paul Heyman girl.”

“I tell you what, there are women in WWE, it’s not just Charlotte, that could probably provide a compelling main event against Ronda Rousey,” Heyman explained. “Look at Nia Jax. I mean you talk about someone that could truly make you believe she could kick Ronda Rousey’s ass, Nia Jax is an impressive performer and a hell of an athlete as well. It’s not like Charlotte is the only one who could be paired up with Ronda Rousey. There are others as well. The women’s roster in WWE right now is unparalleled. In the history of pro wrestling or sports entertainment, there’s never been a women’s roster like this.”
