Thunder Rosa is one of the most popular female stars in AEW. At a point when she was gaining a lot of momentum as the AEW Women’s World Champion, she suffered an injury and was forced to vacate her championship in August 2022.
Since then, Rosa had been rehabbing and training to get back into the squared circle as an in-ring performer. She returned to action in December of last year. Her first match back was at an episode of Collision in a tag team match.
Recently, the former AEW Women’s World Champion Thunder Rosa was a special guest on the Busted Open Radio podcast. During the episode, Rosa shared how her return to in-ring action has been going and mentioned that as she is competing in a variety of matches, her confidence is coming back to her.
“Every single match that I’ve had since I came back has been completely different. I feel like confidence is coming back, and that’s so important for any performer,” Rosa said. “If you have confidence, you’re going to see it. Even if you’re doing one punch, that punch is going to look confidently good. There’s so many other things that I’m studying in professional wrestling that I’m like, ‘Okay, why is it important for the story?’
“It’s not even about the moves,” Rosa continued. “It’s not even about certain things. It’s just like how you deliver certain things in promos and how you deliver certain things in the ring, to further the story. That, to me, is finally clicking after working on TV for eight years.” [H/T WrestlingInc.]
Rosa’s latest match was against Deonna Purrazzo at the AEW Double or Nothing Buy-in.
