Ronda Rousey coming to the WWE might be the headliner from the Royal Rumble PPV event but there’s a negativity around this arrival, as well. Many have suggested that the booking around the behemoth UFC names was not good, at all. The historic Royal Rumble match has just ended with Asuka being the winner. Ronda’s arrival was marked by an interference during the celebration of the winner.
It was a certain thing that the spotlight should have been on Asuka, the inaugural Rumble winner. Instead, the former Bantamweight Champion sucked all of that.
Being a mainstream name, she was all around the sports headlines following the arrival.
WWE benefitted from this since they put the women’s Royal Rumble on the main event picture. But, the overall feedback was not a positive one.
Wonder what all the 30 other women candid thoughts were too? N #firsteverwomensroyalrumble https://t.co/42sztg2JWB

A couple of WWE superstars already let their bitter taste let known on the social media about his booking. The 30 women performing inside the ring should have been the talking point and not Ronda Rousey.
So, stars like Nikki Bella and Nia Jax vented out their frustrations on their Twitter account whereas Sasha Banks denied to let her feelings known about this huge addition to the roster.
In an interview with USA Today, she was asked about Ronda Rousey when she stated the following,
“I have nothing nice to say so I can’t say anything at all. So that’s it. I got nothing nice to say. I’m gonna keep it at that. You’re not gonna get nothing out of me.”

Needless to say that this just points out how much frustrated the ladies from the locker room is with this former MMA performer who might be gunning for a championship match at Wrestlemania.
This, in turn, might keep away the other names including Sasha Banks, the regular performer from WWE Raw sidelined from the title picture.
Being the cornerstones of the WWE brand, names like The Boss deserves an opportunity to compete in a marquee match at the biggest stage of the year.
However, Wrestlemania is that one time when logic is taken over by weird booking where part-timers prevail. So, neither Banks nor the other names can do anything about it.
