Sounds like another reason to give her a mouthpiece. I don't want to see it, but I'm kinda expecting Stephanie to turn heel (*sigh*) in the coming weeks to be her Heyman for the triple threat.

pretty well known in the MMA community, as she did interviews in 2015 (including Rolling Stone) discussing it.
During birth, the umbilical cord was wrapped around her neck

Yeah I'd saw some tweets about it. Speech impediments suck, especially when you're older.

I honestly thought she did well last night.

I honestly thought she did well last night. Her promos are weirdly written as she incorporates all of these big words that sound straight out of a fiction novel, but, she usually delivers the pissed off portions very well. |

Personally, I thought last night was the first time Rhonda actually showed some chops on the mic. Her lashing out was visceral, even if her timing was a bit off. Plus, heeling out brings her edge back.

I knew about this from her book. It's obviously her weak point but I thought she was genuinely really good last night. Hopefully Becky and Charlotte who are much more experienced can help her out.

She did sound genuinely pissed talking about the fans loving Becky and not her, so that was good at least. They got me emotionally invested again after last night, even if the segment was a bit messy.

Okay, totally fair.
Doesn't explain her bizarre verbiage though.

Okay, totally fair. Doesn't explain her bizarre verbiage though. I think it actually does- more unusual or distinctive words are in some ways easier to pronounce because it sticks in the memory. A friend of mine is from the Middle East and has a CRAZY vocabulary in English, dude has taught me words I didn't know existed, because he was working on pronouncing words correctly and also minimising his accent, and weird words seemed to help him. |

Now I kinda feel like a dick. Because I tend to speak too quickly and run my words together, too. And the problem exacerbated when I feel I have to raise my voice to be heard. You have to pause and slow yourself down. Better to speak slowly, and make yourself understood, than having to constantly repeat yourself. Though it’s much easier typed than said.

Even more reason to give us chaotic evil Ronda ripping everyone’s arms out of their sockets and saying a couple of badass lines.

Being heel might even benefit her when it comes to this. Does a villain sound more threatening when they're pushing out a hundred words a minute, or when they are intentionally slowing down what they say, making it sound more deliberate? It could really benefit her whole character by taking this into consideration and helping her out there.
Speech issues suck. As a child, I had a small lisp. Now I have a slight-to-moderate stutter (at any given time). It just forces me to slow down what I'm saying so I can say what I want properly.
