I think WWE may have fumbled this a bit,but I am so glad to finally see “The Rowdy One” Ronda Rousey signed. The next awesome thing I want to see is Ronda Rousey kicking the shit out of that posser and wrestler-wanna be Sasha “I wanna be a Boss ” Banks all over the ring,then breaking her in half,putting her on the shelf.Banks does NOT belong in professional wrestling any more than #SexlessStar from Lucha Underground does….just ask Rosemary or Paige…
