“That is a Kind of Root Art”: Ronda Rousey’s Remarks on Daniel Cormier Will Definitely Leave Brock Lesnar Furious

WWE Extreme Rules is just a day away. The fans are excited about the main event for many reasons. One of them is the debut of Daniel Cormier in WWE as a guest referee. DC would be appearing as a referee in the headline match between Seth Rollins and Matt Riddle. The feud between both superstars has been going on for a while now.

Fans are speculating that DC would come face-to-face with his old adversary Brock Lesnar after the Extreme Rules match. Cormier and Lesnar were both parts of the UFC at one time. Even though they never fought an official match in Octagon, there is an old rivalry between both former UFC fighters. Fans are seeing this as a chance for both wrestlers to settle their feud once and for all.

Another UFC fighter who turned into a pro wrestler made a prediction on who would win if the match between DC and Lesnar ever happened. In a live stream on her YouTube channel, Ronda Rousey expressed who, according to her, is the best fighter among them. And you’d be surprised to know who Rousey picked.

Ronda Rousey picked Daniel Cormier over Brock Lesnar. Although Lesnar and Rousey have been working in the same promotion for a long time, she has a valid reason for her choice. 

Why Ronda Rousey picked Daniel Cormier over Brock Lesnar

The Rowdy One said, “I’d say that DC is the better wrestler because he went to the Olympics. And since that is a kind of root art, I would have to go with that.” Daniel Cormier was part of the Olympic team for a while as a wrestler. Rousey is also an Olympic medalist. Maybe Rowdy Ronda respected the fact that Cormier has taken part in the Olympics and she knows how hard it is to get there.

Brock Lesnar certainly would not be so thrilled hearing this. But Rousey also stated that it would be impossible to make a judgment based on the past record of the fighters. “I don’t know, they’re both friends of mine, so it’s hard for me to say,” said Rousey. Just like both fighters, Ronda is also a former UFC champion and shares a good bond with them.

It is still unclear whether Brock Lesnar will return to challenge Daniel Cormier or not. Lesnar is taking a break from the WWE after his defeat in the Summer Slam against Roman Reigns.
