Charlotte Flair Says Ronda Rousey’s Interest In WWE Is Great
– The New York Post has a story in which Charlotte Flair says that Ronda Rousey and Cyborg Justino’s interest in WWE is good for the business. Here are highlights:
On Rousey and Cyborg’s interest in WWE: “I think it is great because whether Ronda or Cyborg want to be a part of the company, it is still drawing more attention to the women’s division as a whole. Anytime outsiders who aren’t necessarily our main audience are interested, ‘Oh, they want to go to WWE. Who do they want to wrestle?’ I just think it is exciting. I just think it puts more eyes on us.”
On the rumored Horsewomen vs. Horsewomen match at Survivor Series: “I am a little biased in terms of what it takes to be a WWE superstar and performer for the company. I would look at this as a term ‘a gimmick match,’ where I wouldn’t have an expectation, say me versus Nattie [Natalya] at Hell in a Cell. I wouldn’t expect it to be a match like that. They don’t have the training that we have. It’s just different.”
On putting the match in perspective: “I think the only challenge would be people might forget that WWE is a sports entertainment company. I think it would be exciting … but I don’t know if that would even be a challenge. It may even make it more exciting.”
