As one of the greatest in-ring performers in history, Ronda Rousey has made a lasting impression on the professional wrestling world. But since she recently decided to leave the combat industry, attention has been drawn to her personal disclosures, especially in her recently published autobiography, “Our Fight.”
The former RAW Women’s champion shares some of the most fascinating and intimate stories from her life without holding back. A blatant jab at Vince McMahon, the former chairman of the WWE and shareholder of TKO Group Holdings, can be found in her book.
Rousey’s words cut deep as she addresses the shocking allegations made by former WWE employee, Janel Grant, accusing McMahon of sexual misconduct and involvement in sex trafficking within his circle. The Rowdy One paints a vivid picture, hinting that McMahon’s real-life persona closely mirrors his onscreen WWE portrayal.
According to Ronda Rousey, McMahon engaged in various inappropriate segments with female stars, a behavior that led to a slew of allegations and lawsuits over the years.
She doesn’t mince words, suggesting that McMahon’s desires might align with those who wish to strip away women’s rights—a sentiment she sees reflected in WWE’s business dealings with Saudi Arabia.
“It’s hard sometimes to know where the evil, unethical, slimeball character of Vince McMahon played out for the cameras ends and the actual questionably ethical, many times sued, and multiple times accused of sexual misconduct Vince McMahon begins,” Rousey writes. This blurred line between character and reality, she notes, is a recurring theme within the WWE Universe.
The revelation takes a stark turn as Ronda Rousey draws parallels between WWE’s global events. “Pay-per-views are held in major cities like New York, Los Angeles, and Philadelphia, as well as now twice a year in Saudi Arabia, a nation that restricts the rights of women in a way that I’m certain Vince McMahon wishes he could.”
Amidst these revelations, TKO Group Holdings has distanced itself from Vince McMahon, while Ronda Rousey, on the other hand, finds solace in her time with family. Despite declining an offer from WWE’s rival promotion, AEW, she continues to pursue new endeavors and challenges.
Ronda Rousey’s audacious remarks have spurred discussions about the hazy reality of the wrestling business, illuminating how female stars are treated and the moral issues that the business faces.
The perspective presented to readers in ‘Our Fight’ is unvarnished and raw, challenging the status quo and calling for a deeper examination of the world that lies underneath the glitter and glitz of professional wrestling.
