While Ronda Rousey’s ongoing feud with Shayna Baszler has been captivating for many, former WWE personality, Vince Russo believes it’s the “worst thing on the show.”
The former MMA duo have been embroiled in a rivalry ever since Shayna Baszler turned on Rousey at Money in the Bank. It was later reported that a possible reason for their split up was that the latter is soon leaving WWE and wanted to work with her real-life close friend before departing.
Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling’s Legion of RAW, Vince Russo pointed out that Shayna Baszler does not have the babyface persona, which dismisses the credibility of the storyline:
“This is the worst thing on the show that they’re doing because here’s what they’re trying to do. Rousey is on her way out. So they’re trying to bury Rousey as ‘she always looked down her nose at professional wrestling.’ That’s what they’re trying to do. But with Shayna Baszler as the babyface?” Vince said.
Russo continued:
“Shayna Baszler will never in a million years be a babyface… She wears that eye makeup, and she’s a she-beast, you can’t, bro. If you want to do that with Ronda Rousey, that’s fine but do it with somebody that she can make a babyface out of. Shayna Baszler will never ever be a babyface.” [52:42 – 53:36]
