Ronda Rousey Fires Harsh Shot At Becky Lynch

The war of words between WrestleMania 35 opponents Ronda Rousey and Becky Lynch continues this week, as Rousey recently Tweeted, “unlike you I don’t give a damn about my reputation or how I’m rated. You claim you’re carrying the WWE, but all you do is cut promos about me, give interviews about me, and tweet me…you need me to have a real chance to get that main event spot at WrestleMania and you know it.”

The Tweet was in response to Becky Lynch firing off the comment below.

Seth Rollins Injury Update

As noted, WWE star Seth Rollins is dealing with a legitimate injury which he is expected to be cleared from in time for his match against Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 35. While it is possible Rollins could receive medical clearance to return to the ring before the PPV in April, he will likely be kept out of the ring in order to prevent further injury before his big title bout against The Beast.

According to PWInsider, Rollins is backstage at Raw in Portland tonight, and it is expected The Kingslayer will continue to be used on TV while he recovers from injury, but in a non-physical role.
