Former AEW Women’s World Champion Thunder Rosa appeared on an episode of Busted Open Radio, where she talked about a number of topics including her position in the latest AEW rankings.
Rosa said, “It’s interesting to come back and try to earn my stripes again. When you leave with an injury, you have an expectation that you’re going to go back to the top and try to defend the title that you never lost. Now I have to, it’s not what I deserve, I have to earn it, right? It is what it is. I’m waiting out there; I’ve been waiting in the shadows for a while. I’ve been very patient. I’m not here to play games. I’m a prize fighter. I’m not here to just get TV time and look pretty, I love doing that, don’t get me wrong, but I want the prizes. I want to be on top. I will continue to work extremely hard to earn my place in the rankings and that’s what I’m doing. People can say otherwise, I don’t care. I’m here for what I have earned, what I have worked (for).”
