Ronda Rousey really hated working with Vince McMahon during her WWE run.
Last week, Rousey blasted McMahon, who is currently being investigated for alleged sex trafficking of a female employee, for mistreating women wrestlers.
During an interview with Cageside Seats to promote her new book, Rousey says the reason she left the WWE was because she didn’t want to work with McMahon and called him a “sicko.”

“I just didn’t wanna be Vince’s action f—-ing figure anymore. I felt like I was like doing custom matches for a f—-ing sicko in the back,” Rousey said. “All power to the girls that keep fighting the good fight. But I’m in my mid-30’s now. I’ve got s—t to do.”
Rousey believes that McMahon was never truly gone from the company despite stepping down as CEO.
“He was never gone while I was there. He was just phoning it in through Bruce Pritchard,” Rousey claimed. “My agent who works at WME (Endeavor), he was telling me, ‘You know, he’s completely gone now, I swear.’ And I’m like, I’ll believe it when I see it, because everyone said he left before. He never left. He was there by text message.”
The former UFC/WWE star said she likes the direction Triple H is taking the company and wished he had taken over earlier.
“I’m so glad that it’s getting turned around,” “Triple H has been great towards the women in the company and really believing in us. He’s the whole reason that I was there, ‘cause he believed in me. I really wish that my last run was under Triple H running things and Vince being gone.”
