Ronda Rousey is a big pro wrestling fan, and her stock is still among the highest for any crossover celebrity. |
What celebrity would you like to see in the ring? | I’d like to see Childish Gambino (Donald Glover) step inside of the ring. He was almost chosen to be the new Spider-Man, and we all know that Spidey got his big break inside of a pro wrestling ring. |
| Any overly 1980s’ cheesy cartoon hero or villain nickname is the worst for me. Names like Skull Crusher are a poor reflection of what pro wrestling’s evolved into. | Worst wrestling name you’ve heard? | The Hickster: He was a 6’ 1", 500-pound wrestler who dressed up like a Confederate Hulk Hogan and believed he was just as big of a star. |
| Neither. Over time, with experience, you find comfort in developing your own identity and style. |
Are you more the Rock or Hulk Hogan? |
I would consider myself more like the Rock. I throw up the people’s eyebrow [the Rock’s signature move] and can spot a jabroni [one who loses to make other wrestlers look better] a mile away. |
| F8FUL EIGHT, Franklin Horner Community Centre, March 4, doors open at 6 p.m. Watch the championship match, with a special appearance by Jake The Snake. |
Next event, where and when? | Bulletproof Mascaras, Lee’s Palace, March 5, at 5 p.m. Watch Luchadors take on pro wrestling’s evil professor, Dr. Cube [this event is 19+]. |
