LoL @ myself when I read what I wrote. I mean she wasn't wearing any leather jacket, or kilt, or HotRod shirt, she didn't walk out with Roddy or any WWE personalities...she just stepped in to WWE Universe and was named HotRod's protege'. If you ask any casual MMA or WWE fan what Ronda's nickname was in UFC, you'll get a lot of blank stares.
This is the same world where this happened-
They have not once said she was Roddy’s protege’.
They're making her out as part of Roddy's lineage, maybe she is...but more part of Gene's lineage.
She has a full time contract, of course they are going to make her part of the talent. And all they have said is Piper was her hero/favorite wrestler.
I thought it was well established on the UG that it's impossible for any woman to beat any man in a fight. Like if Serena Williams had trained for fighting as much as she had for tennis starting at age 3, she would still be overwhelmed by the "man strength" of a semi-paralyzed 80 year old guy who weighs 96 lbs.This is the same world where this happened-
And this man has supernatural powers
And that's all fine, but an Olympian in judo, a trained mixed martial artist who trained with men catching someone who never trained for submissions in a submission is too much...?
I'm not complaining about her wearing Roddy's ring gear, I just don't think it's going to go very far. It's a very confused gimmick - she's assuming Roddy's mantle, but she's the World's Most Dangerous Woman like Ken Shamrock, but she's going to do a one-off freakshow match like PBF...She has a full time contract, of course they are going to make her part of the talent. And all they have said is Piper was her hero/favorite wrestler.
I can understand the frustration, because once HHH put on a Kane mask and put his good name through the muck by pretending to have intercourse with a mannequin.
Kane’s mask did not need that. As well as all the dirty heels that put on Sting’s facepaint and attack him. Fake Sting, Mr Anderson, think Jarret did it once. Hell Sting did it once!!
Can you see how this is ridiculous now? To complain about Ronda wearing Piper homages when all this other madness is happening?
anything is believable if you're willing to suspend disbelief. What's being discussed is the business of decisions that are being made with her character and how that reflects on/impacts the rest of WWE
And a shitty fucking opinion. MMA has the worst fucking fans of any sport. (edit) I'll add that the MMA "media" are right there with the shitty fans. Shitty rejects from real journalists(in most cases).
Roddy gave his blessing, Colt gave her the jacket to wear.. But I'm sure that we here on the forum know better than Roddy and his family, right? You're better than this.
It is largely due to the timing of MMA becoming mainstream in the internet era.
Colt flew in to give RR his Dad's jacket & support her WWE debut.
Roddy Piper is fucking dead for 2.5 years. He may have said she could do whatever in the the UFC but clearly he doesn't know about her new career.....
Wow... I just threw up in my mouth a little bit...The fake MMA gloves was the worst part of her outfit imo-
He knew she was going to transition to Prowrestling. He gave her his blessings to use the nickname, was around her and the rest of the horsewomen often, he is smiling about what she's doing.
It is undeniably lame.
I wouldn't have expected to come across such a perceptive comment on society in this thread on this site but here it is.
WoW
Geez man. What Honda do to you kick your puppy?
