Not A Fan: Former WWE Creative team Member SLAMS Recent Title Match

He’s not a fan. We are moving away from Survivor Series, which was one of the biggest shows of the year. The card featured a variety of matches and stars up and down the show, some of which were better than others. With so many people watching the show, there are going to be some who like it more than others, and in this case, a former WWE employee was not happy with what he saw.

One of the matches at Survivor Series saw Ronda Rousey successfully defend her SmackDown Women’s Title against Shotzi. During the latest edition of the Wrestling With Freddie podcast, former WWE creative team member Freddie Prinze Jr. blasted the match, calling it “the single worst match I have seen in I don’t know how long”. Prinze Jr. said that it was not Shotzi’s fault, but rather blaming Rousey for her wrestling getting worse, suggesting that she is either not trying or is incapable of making things work. Here are some of Prinze’s comments, with transcription courtesy of Wrestlinginc.com:

On The Match:

“Ronda Rousey versus Shotzi. This was the single worst match I have seen in I don’t know how long and it was not Shotzi Blackheart’s fault. Shotzi did her thing in this … [Shotzi] carried Ronda through this whole match. She did everything a wrestler could do to make the other wrestler look good. But, it takes two to tango … Ronda is regressing, she is not progressing. Her work is not getting better. It’s getting worse. She blew a DDT that should have been the spot of the freaking night.”

And On Rousey:

“[Ronda’s] either not taking time to work with people … or, she can’t do it. If it’s the latter, which means she can’t do it, then why is she there? And I don’t think it’s that. She’s obviously athletic … It was legit unwatchable.”

The match did indeed take place. Check out what happened:

Opinion: I’m not sure if the match was as bad as it seemed, but Prinze certainly didn’t seem to approve of anything that the two were able to do. Rousey seemed to be trying and Shotzi was in the biggest match of her career. Maybe things can get better in the future, but for now they didn’t exactly seem to impress Prinze, who does have a bit of an inside look at how things go.

What did you think of the match? Are Prinze’s comments fair? Let us know in the comments below.
