WWE Superstar Chris Jericho recently joined Bellator MMA heavyweight Chael Sonnen on “Beyond The Fight” to talk about several professional wrestling topics. One such topic included former UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey coming over to the professional wrestling world and signing with WWE. Rousey will team with WWE Hall Of Famer and Monday Night RAW General Manager Kurt Angle in a Mixed Tag Team match against WWE COO Triple H and RAW Commissioner Stephanie McMahon.
Jericho was asked how he thinks Rousey will fare in her WWE career. “Y2J” went on to explain why he thinks “The Rowdy One” will do just fine in her new career path:
”Absolutely, and I’ll tell you the reason why: Wrestling is all show business. We control everything, who wins, who loses, the match, whatever it may be. If you look at some of the great matches involving celebrities of all time — Bam Bam Bigelow vs. Lawrence Taylor … Floyd Mayweather vs. Big Show — you’ll see those. I mean, Mr. T back in the day, it wasn’t classics but they don’t have to be.
“Here’s how you put together a great WrestleMania: you put together… it’s a variety show. Here’s your matches that have a chance to be 5-stars, here’s your matches just to get everybody on the card that haveno chance of being great matches you’re just putting everybody on the show, and then here’s your attraction matches. Here’s your Brock vs. Roman, here’s your Angle & Ronda vs. Triple H & Stephanie.
“They can put together the match any way they want. All they have to do is just put it together so she has one or two spots that really pop and mean something. The rest is all dog and pony show, show business. A) She’s an athlete, B) She’s a wrestling fan, and C) she wants to do this. She’s going to be fine.”
