Athena wants to capture more gold.

“The Fallen Goddess” recently appeared for a K&S WrestleFest virtual signing, during which she made it clear that she isn’t impressed with title-holders in AEW, except for TBS Women’s Champion Kris Statlander.

Featured below are some of the highlights from the virtual signing where she touches on this topic with her thoughts.

On her desire to put more gold around her waist and how AEW female champions are cowards: “Right now, I’m the forever Ring of Honor Champion. It’s my show, my title, my family with Lexi and Billie [Billie Starkz]. My next goal is to get some more gold around my waist, maybe make an appearance on AEW, seeing if I can get under the skin of some of the champions over there and see if they’ll issue that challenge. They’re all cowards.”

On how Kris Statlander isn’t a coward but someone that she actually respects: “I love Kris Statlander. I would love even more to kick her in the face. That would be beautiful. Hikaru Shida. I wrestled Shida a long time ago in SHIMMER, and I thoroughly enjoyed that match. I would love the opportunity to kick her in the face again. That would be beautiful.”
