Triple H says Kurt Angle and Ronda Rousey have more in common than Olympic Medals.
In an interview with NBC Sports, Triple H spoke about the transition of Ronda Rousey into professional wrestling. She has been preparing for her debut at the WWE Performance Center and Triple H said he was surprised by her progress so far.
“I was shocked...I shouldn't say shocked because she’s such an amazing athlete, but I was very pleasantly surprised by her level of athleticism and ability to pick up the stuff that we’re doing so quickly," said Triple H
In fact, Triple H said it reminds him of when Rousey's Wrestlemania tag team partner Kurt Angle joined WWE in 1998.
"She’s very Kurt Angle-ish in that Kurt was the fastest person I’ve ever seen pick this business up. I don’t know if it’s because the mannerisms are similar, I’m honestly not really sure, but he just went from a guy that was walking into the door into bang he had it. She’s the same way with the physical aspect," said Triple H
Rousey and Angle will be wrestling the team of Triple H and Stephanie McMahon at Wrestlemania 34 for which Fightful Wrestling will have live coverage and a recapping podcast.
