Ronda Rousey responds to claim she was furious about not headlining Wrestlemania 38

UFC -turned- WWE star Ronda Rousey has responded to claims that she was furious about not headlining Wrestlemania 38 on Saturday. Rousey took on Charlotte Flair at the flagship WWE event in contention for the Smackdown women’s championship.

Ahead of her fight it was reported that the former UFC champion was ‘angry’ that she wasn’t appearing in the event’s headline fight, with WWE legend Stone Cold Steve Austin’s fight with Kevin Owens topping the card. And fellow wrestler Bryan Alvarez made the claim on the Bryan and Vinny Show podcast .

He said: “Ronda thought that she was going on last. She wasn’t. The Kevin Owens Show was going on last. And when she found out she was furious, I was told. One person who knows her, so I presume that this is true, said she was so mad Friday that she walked out. So she wasn’t at the Hall of Fame.”
