Ronda Rousey believes the historic women’s main event at WrestleMania 35 did not receive the level of preparation it deserved.
Speaking with Complex, Ronda Rousey reflected on the triple threat match involving herself, Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair, which became the first women’s match to headline WrestleMania. While Rousey praised the significance of the moment, she admitted the match suffered because of the limited time spent behind the scenes preparing.
“I remembered we had no time at all to put it together,” Rousey said. “We spent a year promoting it and like a day and a half putting it together.”
Rousey compared the situation to her WWE in-ring debut at WrestleMania 34, when she teamed with Kurt Angle to face Triple H and Stephanie McMahon. According to Rousey, that match benefited from weeks of preparation and collaboration with several experienced wrestling minds.
“My debut match, we spent like six weeks putting it together and we had all the best minds in the industry coming and giving their two cents and tweaking it,” Rousey explained. “Making it better and better and better until the day that we came and we went out and did it.”
Rousey described her debut as her favourite match of her wrestling career and suggested the WrestleMania 35 main event could have reached a much higher level with similar preparation.
“Though the milestone itself was incredible, I feel like the match unfortunately wasn’t as great as it could have been if we were able to put the same kind of preparation into it that I felt like it deserved,” she said.
