Thunder Rosa Would Love To Do For AEW Women’s Title What Kenny Omega Did For AEW World Title

Thunder Rosa is ready to become AEW Women’s Champion.

Rosa will have her crack at the AEW Women’s Championship on Sunday at AEW Revolution when she challenges Britt Baker.

Rosa has held titles in multiple organizations throughout her career and she’s ready to take the AEW Women’s Championship, and the division as a whole, to new heights.

“Get ready, ladies,” Rosa told Denise Salcedo of Instinct Culture when asked what the division could expect with her as champion. “Some of the matches I have envisioned and some of the things I would love to do…when I was NWA (Women’s) Champion, I was a fighting champion. I went out everywhere, I defended the thing during COVID times. I found a way to make it relevant and I want the AEW women’s division, kind of like Kenny Omega was doing, I would love to do something like that. I think we haven’t had a champion like that and I think I have what it takes to be that. I have the grit, the determination, the consistency, everything is developing with Thunder Rosa.”

Rosa continued, addressing criticisms of her promos and discussing her mindset going into the match.

“A lot of people criticize me because they think that I can’t cut promos. You guys haven’t seen the promos that I have cut because on TV, things get edited and changed. I’ve been working so hard at my English too, my dictation, how smart I sound. I’m not cursing as much in Spanish. When my time comes, in the time that I become a champion, I want you guys to see it. It can be a coin toss. I’m prepared for success and failure. Failure will prepare me for a bigger thing, but I know I’m not going to fail. If it happened, it’s not the last you’ve seen of Thunder Rosa in or outside the ring. I’m always ready to win, but I’m prepared for the unknown. I could have shit on Britt Baker, she can say whatever she wants, I’m not worried about her. That’s the last of my thoughts. My thoughts are, when I achieve this, how am I going to make the division completely different? What difference am I going to make when I become a leader of the locker room? A real leader. That’s what I’ve been working on the last two years. How to become a real leader that leads with passion, compassion, and is ready to take on challenges, build other people up, represent others instead of just representing me as a doctor or whatever. I’m ready to represent the people. They call me the people’s champ. Is that trademarked? If not, I’m going to start using it,” she said with a laugh.

Despite The Rock and Diamond Dallas Page using the nickname “People’s Champion,” there is no live trademark for the term.
