Chris Jericho Seemingly Defends Ronda Rousey From Criticism

Chris Jericho has given his take regarding some of the recent comments made by WWE RAW Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey including a YouTube video where she made several interesting comments including calling wrestling fake.

The former IWGP Intercontinental Champion commented on Rousey breaking kayfabe that caused a big reaction from fans. Although he didn’t specifically name Rousey, it seemingly appears to be about the former UFC Women’s Bantamweight Champion.

Jericho wrote the following on his official Twitter account, “Makes me smirk when wrestling fans & critics get up in arms about something a performer says or does. This is show business…nothing more, nothing less…so when an action or promo elicits a reaction and connects with an audience, it’s successful! Sit back & enjoy the ride kids!”

The stipulation going into the Fastlane pay-per-view event is that if Becky Lynch wins then she’ll get her wish. She will be added to the RAW Women’s Title Match between Rousey and Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania 35 on Sunday, April 7, 2019 in East Rutherford, NJ at MetLife Stadium. On the flip side, if she loses then she’s done.

Kenny Omega vs. Chris Jericho 2 is expected to headline the AEW Double or Nothing event that is set to take place May 25th at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
