Keep Rousey and Asuka on separate shows for as long as possible but occasionally interacting like that and they may get their female WM main event next year.
Assuming Rousey adapts to wrestling in that time.

I don't really have any emotional attachment to Rousey. Most of her UFC wave I missed.
She has the UFC experience and all that hype she had there, and while she got her butt kicked hard in her last couple fights, that didn't really hurt Brock's aura much when he came back to WWE.
She's starting on a lower rung than others so you have to think they'll keep it simple and dominant in the ring. If she's indeed working house shows, then try longer and more complicated stuff there. And given the investment/publicity, yes, she's going to be put ahead of some other people in the division, just gotta accept that and hope the increased attention will shine a light on others to make up for that.
I do hope she's matured some, or this helps her to do so. Some of the stuff both before and after the Holm loss didn't look or sound good.
Best of luck to her. Doing this full-time will be a whole lot harder than a celebrity appearance or two.

Oh yeah, because they haven't talked about how HISTORIC the rumble was. Stephanie's been saying it so much you'd think there was a pullstring on her back that tripped the phrase.

Well, I guess we’ll have to wait until after WM34 to see if she’ll actually be working Dana Brooke on Main Event.

Rousey came off as such a dork.

Come on. Be better than that. Is "broad" a bad word? I didn't know that, honestly. How about giving the “broad” a chance?

Everyone worried about Asuka- what about it Ronda turns out to become the best in Wwe and picks it up quick like angle?

She's signed full-time hence the overexcited thread title bruh. I love how people are overlooking the "full-time" in the breaking news tweet to fit their narrative. Hate away if come WrestleMania she's shown up only twice, but at least give her a chance before shit slinging! Yeh it’s really annoying

I dunno if Nia and Nikki's tweets are works or shoots, but they come off so unprofessional and like petulant children. She's a big name and a very deserving competitor won the Rumble which showcased female stars old and new in a positive light, get f'n over it. I can't imagine Miz tweeting on the road to WrestleMania 27: "guess I'll just let a movie star steal the spotlight while I'm champion." CM Punk made the exact complaint about the Rock on his famous podcast and was lifted up like Simba in the Lion King for it. I dunno. Seems work-ish but who the hell knows.

If there was such thing as a "Pro Wrestling Entry Draft". Rousey would be hands down the 1st overall pick for any promotion. Of course, there are always busts. But you don't pass on a talent like Rousey. It would be like passing on Lebron or Sidney Crosby. Well not exactly. It'd be more like if you passed on one of the top NFL guys for a Rugby draft. The sports have some similarities but they're not the same thing. No. I think he is saying if you could draft anyone based on the potential of “would they be a good pro wrestler?”, Rousey would be first.

Nia Jax and the Bella's are not the only ones to complain about Rousey

And this is why she got put on last and is in WWE 17 pages of people going back and forth about whether they like her or not Okay, that's the second time I've seen this type of argument today. "It got several pages here, this is why it will be a success". I've got no opinion either way on Rousey since I don't watch. She may give the ratings a tiny spike, she may not. I just want to say that this board has gone way over 17 pages from things as bizarre as HHH having wet jeans once. We're not some barometer of success here, we're people that like to argue online over literally anything.

As long as Ronda is actualy full time committed to it I don’t have a big issue with it. It’s more about how to present her. I’m pretty sure everyone in the crowd assumes Ronda can lay waste to the whole roster so it be hard to book someone on the same level. Asuka is the best bet but they will blow there load on that early then what do you do

"Full time" That's no different than when they sign an indy performer and expect them to finish up their commitments. She was signed onto that movie long before she was in talks with WWE. If she's off filming movies every couple of months after her debut angle has finished, then we can throw shade on her being full time.
