So after watching Ronda for the last few months I've kinda come to a conclusion about her - she is just a naturally unlikeable person. The kind of person you'd have a three minute conversation with and be like "I never want to talk to you or spend any time with you ever again". Not like Cena or Reigns where you get the impression there's a cool guy underneath, but the company is just presenting them as dorks. But just deep down she's just not a person you want to have to deal with. And I don't know completely how to place why she is, she just is. The WWE needs to take advantage of this and turn her heel. I take your general point, and you're right and this is super off topic, but can I just point out that I don't get that vibe from Cena? I do from Roman, but from Cena? Nah, man, dude gives me Patrick Bateman vibes. Like, my personal pet theory is that when John Cena really for real retires/dies, we're gonna learn some DARK shit about him. I have no basis for thinking that other than pure instinct.

Brock's entire image is of a big dumb meathead too... so the times he talked without Heyman was still ok because he talked and sounded like one. The way its presented were supposed to think Ronda is witty... and she's not. Going by the way she comes to the ring smiling all the time (which I actually find adorable as hell to be honest) and her promos, it's like they're trying to make her the cute girl next door who's also a brainiac and the baddest chick on the planet all in one. It doesn't help when Joe Rogan literally called Ronda "once in human history individual" whose fights were big cultural events that made people stop what they were doing and watch her perform as she's on her way to the cage for a fight. Being hyped as the one true face of the UFC before Conor McGregor hit it big as well as a badass dork that could crush anyone in your path usually covers up that Ronda and the other horsewomen kinda bitchy towards other fighters and UFC staff as long as you win.

I'll be the contrarian and say Ronda's awful insults are kind of endearing like a bad Scott Steiner/Sid promo
Need more bad a "A Real Champion" speeches

Nah, man, dude gives me Patrick Bateman vibes. Like, my personal pet theory is that when John Cena really for real retires/dies, we're gonna learn some DARK shit about him. I have no basis for thinking that other than pure instinct. I can kind of see your point, but I think with Cena, there's a veneer you have to crack through to get to the real guy. He strikes me as a guy who puts up a lot of walls, I think it's a major reason he and Nikki were just destined to not work out. I think his divorce really did a number on him. To play armchair shrink, I think Cena had such control over his image at that time and was all but untouchable and then the divorce happens and we got rumors of some cheating by Cena, I think since then, Cena's been so in control of his image and how he is presented because he doesn't want to lose that control again. Everything he does is very very calculated to best serve himself. I don't think he does it to be an asshole, he does it because he's terrified of losing what he has. As for Ronda, she really strikes me like CM Punk. Loyal and good to the people she's close to, but that is a really short list and it's likely not worth wading through the storm. Ronda seems like a very uncompromising individual. She thinks the way she does, will not change her mind and will not listen to other viewpoints.

I saw Ronda at Wal-Mart and we were both looking at the cereal. I picked up they Honey Nut Cherrios. She immediately looked at me with a disgusted face and said "-and that's why your hoodie isn't tucked in" and walked away.
I'm perplexed to this day.

She immediately looked at me with a disgusted face and said "-and that's why your hoodie isn't tucked in" and walked away. I'm perplexed to this day. I saw Ronda Rousey at a grocery store in Los Angeles yesterday. I told her how cool it was to meet her in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother her and ask her for photos or anything. She said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but she kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing her hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard her chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw her trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in her hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Ma'am, you need to pay for those first.” At first she kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, she stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, she kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly. {Spoiler}In all seriousness, "And that's why your hoodie isn't tucked in"? The f***?

Ronda just reminds me of that friend that you hate going out anywhere with because you know they will say something ridiculous and everyone will be looking at you.

When the bar is set at Becky I guess you gotta be really lame to get these reactions. I miss how funny Enzo was roasting the cruiserweights.
I agree with whoever said get her a manager, easy fix.

The sleeping with Cena bit? not really... it was a pretty poor insult and old hat by the time AJ pulled out the talent isn't sexually transmitted line. Wait...when AJ said that, did a giant cement block with IRONY written on it drop onto the stage? No, that was a different match.

I mean, yeah she's a Judo expert and ex UFC Champion but Sid had an aura of "Do Not f*** With Him."

Ronda is entertaining enough in the ring as a character that I don't care about her promos, honestly. Give her a manager or just let her keep being shit on the mic, I'm here for her matches.

Unfortunately with some that can lead to entitlement. That could be what happened here.

I have no basis for thinking that other than pure instinct. Ive also always maintained the gut instinct Cena is a high functioning sociopath. Superficial glib and charm, emotional disconnect... not gonna run down everything but its there. Now im slighty against your "dark stuff" part simply because i think he manifested his facade really well and other than "lulz guess i shouldnt have beaten nexus!" Hasn't done anything too egregious. But. The make a wish children get wonderful moments when their lives are darkest, and he (hopefully) isnt making a female skin suit, sooooo *shrug*. Edit: and yes. Ronda is a buffoon and a horrible person. Sandy hook denying is enough for me. You dont edgelord out about fakenews when parents are burying their kids.
