Thunder Rosa recently provided an injury update to NBC Chicago after being on the sidelines for several months.
Rosa relinquished the AEW Women’s World Title in November due to a back injury after missing a few months of action. She returned to the road with AEW to be part of the Spanish commentary team in February. Here are some of the highlights from the interview:
Her recovery:
“It’s going pretty well. Things are going as they are supposed to go. I am super happy that I’ve been pain-free. That’s the most important part. I think it took forever. Everybody’s expecting me to give them news, but I am working out every day trying to get back in the ring as soon as possible and if it’s possible, that’s what I’m trying to do.”
The AEW women’s division:
“I think everybody has been working together collaboratively in a way where anyone can step up to the plate and be a great competitor. I’m happy for Skye Blue. I remember her first working as an extra, and then she got signed in Chicago. That was a very special moment for her, and Dynamite this Wednesday in Washington DC, she’s going to have a great match with Toni Storm [for the Women’s Title]. It’s just like anywhere else as time passes and you’re not there, things are going to keep happening…I think a lot of people are respecting Kris Statlander to come in and take over. It was her time.”
