Former WWR SmackDown Champion Ronda Rousey has been lately in news, mostly for her transition to tag wrestling and the recovery update regarding her recent arm injury. On the other end the Rowdy One rose to headlines by making a controversial comment on WWE’s poor booking of the women’s division.
In the new episode of ‘Ronda on the road’ YouTube blog, Rousey took a dig at WWE’s creative team for unwisely booking her 5-minute feud against Liv Morgan. Referring to this comment, there has been a surge of criticism emerges in WWE Universe. One of those includes WWE Hall of Famer Eric Bischoff’s recent counter-comment on Rounda Rousey’s claim.

Recently, Bischoff appeared in the latest episode of his podcast ’83 weeks‘ and shed light on a wide range of topics. When it comes to Ronda Rousey’s context, it’s not unknown to wrestling fans that, as a wrestler, the former Raw Women’s Champion hasn’t been in the good books of Bischoff, as his previous comments on her clearly reflected this.
This time is no different. Referring to the controversial Instagram post of Ronda Rousey, the former Hall of Famer revealed his gut feeling about the 36-year-old star.

Bischoff noted, ‘With Ronda, it’s not a lack of talent. It’s not a lack of potential. I just don’t feel she’s as passionate about it. There’s definitely professional commitment on her part, I’m sure. I know she really wants this, and I know how hard it is for her to do what she’s doing, especially given the amount of pressure that’s on her because of who she is and the expectations that come with that. I don’t know. She’s not there yet. I’ve never felt that connection and I still don’t.’
Another controversial WWE star, Logan Paul, has received massive criticism ever since he made his debut. But it seems like Bischoff keeps him one step ahead of Ronda Rousey, for he oozes out passion while fighting inside the squared circle, unlike Rousey.

However, it seems like Bischoff is not the only one to catch the vibe of her not being in the place right now. Some reports also back this idea up.
Ronda Rousey can take a break following her WrestleMania match
The Baddest Woman on the planet is set to compete in a 4-way tag team match with Shayna Baszler by her side at WrestleMania 39 next weekend. However, when it comes to the post-mania plan, everything seems unsure. Reports have surfaced, suggesting Ronda Rousey’s plan to take a break after her scheduled match at WrestleMania. In a recent report, Wrestlevote noted, “I’m not quite sure that Ronda’s heart is in it as it was in 2018-19. Maybe she does need another small break, and then she returns again, and she becomes the megastar because right now, I think the feeling is that she’s not the megastar she once was.”
