Dutch Mantel Says He Would Fire Every Member Of The WWE Women’s Roster Except Ronda Rousey And Shayna Baszler
Tegan Nox paired up with Liv Morgan to take on Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler in her debut WWE bout in more than a year on SmackDown.
On this week’s episode of Smack Talk, Dutch Mantel discussed the show and expressed his reservations about Nox’s in-ring performance, saying she wasn’t prepared for the main roster. He also called for the firing of everyone in the WWE women’s division except for Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler.
She is not ready. I don’t know long she has been in developmental; I don’t know what she was doing down there. She is unsure of herself. Now, that could be, I guess, ring rust, but she wasn’t moving smoothly. Kind of like she was hesitating on some of the stuff she did. I saw her arm drags, pathetic! Not very good!
That’s what they’re sending them to Orlando for. If you can’t learn to give a graceful arm drag, something’s wrong with the other person working with you. So, it does look forced. I would fire everybody right now in the girls’ division except Ronda and Baszler. I’d fire everybody, then five minutes later, I’d hired them all back just to show them I could do it.

Despite spending a lot of time outside the squared circle, Dutch Mantell wasn’t really impressed with Nox’s abilities, but it seems like he also wants to clean house.
