Be it UFC or WWE, she has carved her name beautifully wherever she has performed. However, the icing on the cake happened when a WWE Hall of Famer compared her first year in the promotion with the ultimate legend of the roster, Brock Lesnar

A recent claim by Kurt Angle has made Ronda Rousey’s fans elated but might have annoyed Lesnar’s followers.

Angle first said, “In the business, once you get experience, you learn how to improvise and work on the fly. You come up with 50% of the match, and then the other 50% you just make it up as you go along.”

He shared the basic technique of a wrestler when he/she comes to perform in the ring. Further, he also stated that Ronda wasn’t well-versed in this. But while continuing with it, he also put her over himself and The Beast Incarnate. 

 

As he said, “Ronda didn’t get the opportunity to learn that, but what she did in her first year, I would even say she had a better first year than Brock Lesnar or myself. I think she did incredibly well.

Angle mentioned that Rowdy never mastered the business

Another statement from one of the biggest stars of the Attitude Era can leave everyone in utter shock. As Angle effortlessly said, “The one thing Ronda didn’t do that she could and will do eventually, she never mastered the business.” Fighting and winning matches are one thing, and mastering the art of business is another. This is exactly what Kurt is talking about.

He also disclosed that the team had to give her step-by-step instructions, so that she knows exactly what was going to happen. Maybe those trainings transformed her into a beloved wrestler for all the fans. If we compare her journey with that of The Conqueror, there’s a massive difference, but gaining traction similar to him is a big deal in itself.
