The WNBA has experienced a significant increase in viewership in recent years, largely driven by the influx of star power into the league.
Caitlin Clark, the standout guard for the Indiana Fever, has played a major role in this surge. She made an immediate impact during her rookie season, drawing many fans eager to watch her in action.
WWE Superstar Seth Rollins recently joined in and shared his admiration for WNBA rookie Caitlin Clark, drawing comparisons between her and basketball legend
Michael Jordan. Rollins, who is known for his enthusiasm for both sports and athletic achievements and has been following Clark’s rise in the league, praised her impact on the game, saying,
“I love Caitlin Clark… It’s Jordanesque. She’s changed the game.” Clark, who made an explosive debut with the Indiana Fever, quickly captured the attention of basketball fans and analysts alike. The 22-year-old guard dominated during her rookie season, leading the Fever to the postseason and proving her place among the best in the league. Her stellar performances, including an average of 19.2 points, 5.7 rebounds, 8.4 assists, and 1.2 steals per game, helped her earn a spot on the WNBA All-Star team and secure the WNBA Rookie of the Year Award.
Clark’s success, however, hasn’t come without pressure. Despite the heightened expectations and the media spotlight, she has handled the spotlight with grace, focusing on her game and letting her on-court performance speak for itself. As she prepares for her second season, there is a palpable excitement about what she will accomplish next.
