Thunder Rosa reflects on pivotal AEW debut, recent feuds, and future championship aspirations

Thunder Rosa, a prominent figure in AEW’s women’s division, recently reflected on her debut match against Hikaru Shida in September 2020. Rosa considers this match a pivotal moment in her 11-year wrestling career, crediting it with cementing her status in AEW. Despite their current differences, Rosa acknowledges Shida’s role in her career development. However, Rosa’s recent attempts to defeat Shida have been unsuccessful, including a recent Fatal-Four Way match on AEW Collision.

Rosa’s career in AEW has been marked by significant feuds and matches. She recently concluded a months-long rivalry with Deonna Purrazzo, which culminated in a violent Texas Bullrope Match. This intense bout reminded Rosa of her bloody 2022 Cage Match against Britt Baker for the Women’s World Championship. As AEW’s All Out 2024 approaches, fans are left wondering about Rosa’s future in the promotion and her potential to capture championship gold once again.

One of the most important moments in my career. One of the most memorable things I have done in 11 years of wrestling. Although @shidahikaru are not seeing eye to eye right now, she helped me cement myself as the heart of this division @aew #lameramera #AllOut https://t.co/HEnKT9h7Z1
