AEW Women’s World Champion Thunder Rosa is staying busy with non-AEW work while she rehabs her back. During Busted Open Radio, Rosa praised WWE NXT Women’s Champion Mandy Rose.
“I’m gonna say Mandy Rose, and I wanna give an appreciation to her because she’s worked so darn hard in the last month representing the NXT brand and also working on her craft. When she was in Raw and in SmackDown all that time, people did not have any respect for her a lot of the time because of her lack of skills, like there’s a lot of little things here and there. But I feel like she really has taken the time. She has developed her character really, really well. People tune in to see her. She always makes everybody talk about her. This last match she had, she’s showing a lot of fire in the fact that she’s taking a lot more risks as a champion. It really shows that she’s growing and she is really committed to what she’s doing right now. She’s really committed to represent NXT’s women’s division as a champion. She might not be a high flyer, she might not be super spectacular, but what she’s doing, I think it’s very important because that shows you if you give time to someone and if you believe in them, that’s how you can develop and that’s how you can become. I think Mandy Rose deserves a little bit more respect because she’s really working very, very hard.”AEW Women’s World Champion Thunder Rosa gave props to Mandy Rose on a recent Busted Open Radio show.

“For me, one thing that I love is that she owns the fact that she is pretty, that she’s beautiful, but she’s also a champion, and she’s also the face of the women’s division in that aspect. The dynamics that she has with the babyfaces there. I think at NXT, you’re either super, super heel, and you’re super, super babyface. That’s very palpable. I don’t feel like there are a lot of tweeners and I think that helps her a lot more when she is doing her thing. I’m really enjoying her work in the last couple weeks and I really enjoy her promos. They’re very entertaining, with her and Toxic Attraction.”
