Kurt Angle praises Ronda Rousey: "She was better than Brock Lesnar!"

• Sports

Kurt Angle has defended Ronda Rousey from the countless criticisms she has received in recent years. Kurt explained: "Ronda Rousey has done a great job since day one she set foot in WWE. She didn't have any kind of experience in the world of wrestling, so she had to work hard and we helped her as much as possible.

We I had to give her instructions and go over them with her for several days, so that she was ready and always knew what was going to happen in the ring. Once you gain experience, you learn to improvise. You remember 50% of the meeting and the other 50% you invent during construction. Ronda's first year in WWE was even better than mine or Brock Lesnar's.

I think she handled it incredibly well." The former Olympic gold medalist also spent nice words for Ricochet: "Ricochet has all it takes to win important titles in 2023. He has worked hard in recent years and deserves to receive a great chance.

The future is in his hands. My wife loves watching him fight, because he can pull off so many spectacular moves. He reminds me a lot of a superhero." Ronda Rousey has dealt a major blow to her detractors since her first year in WWE.

The early part of her wrestling career began at WrestleMania 34 and ended in the main event of WrestleMania 35, where she was powerless against a wild Becky Lynch. The former UFC star took a long hiatus from wrestling to focus on her family and returned more motivated than ever to rock the WWE Universe.

'Rowdy' successfully defended her world title against Raquel Rodriguez on SmackDown, but was then surprised by the sensational return of Charlotte Flair. She the latter had been in the pits since she lost to Rousey at WrestleMania Backlash.

'The Queen' demanded and got an immediate title shot, getting rid of Ronda and turning the tables right at the start of 'Road to WrestleMania'
