2. WWE’s Grueling Schedule
To say WWE has a grueling schedule would be an understatement. Between house shows and TV taping and other promotional works, the life of a WWE wrestler is pretty much on the road at least 300 days in a year. To be able to cope up with that schedule one has to be extremely committed and passionate about being a professional wrestler.
Does Ronda Rousey have what it takes to be a full-time wrestler? She is conditioned to be a fighter regardless. However, is she conditioned to travel around the country and overseas and shake off the wear and tear and tell a story in the ring? A lot of the pro wrestlers do this because of their love for what they do. One has to wonder whether Rousey shares the same emotions? If she is in it for the money and the fame, a full-time schedule would wear her down in no time.
Everything previously noted would get multiplied if you are holding a title in the WWE. John Cena has been the face of the WWE for well over a decade. The Cenation leader has balanced his duties outside the ring pretty well. Would Rousey be able to cope with the sudden rise in public appearances? If Rousey makes it to the WWE, there is no doubt she would eventually be booked as the Women’s champion. The title holders in the WWE represent the WWE brand and it would be a tough task for her to balance that with her acting career. Rousey did star in multiple movies and TV shows including Fast and Furious 7. Between a promising acting career and the grueling WWE career, which would she stick to eventually?
