The former SmackDown Women's Champion also mentioned that she believed the CEO of TKO Group Holdings Ari Emanuel needs to remove all of Vince McMahon's influence from the company.
"Steph and Triple H, I think they’re honestly doing their best. But I mean, I think that Vince McMahon just created a fundamentally sick environment, and I think if Ari Emanuel is gonna be able to actually make this multi-billion-dollar dysfunctional organization into one that functions, he’s gotta clean out all of Vince’s cronies. He’s gotta completely clean house and remove Vince’s influence completely," said Ronda Rousey.
Ronda Rousey claimed that Paul Heyman and other backstage producers blamed Liv Morgan for a major thing during the latter's title reign.
