Thunder Rosa Says Her Feud With Britt Baker Is Like The Rock & Steve Austin

AEW

AEW Women’s World Champion Thunder Rosa finally captured the championship from Britt Baker back at the St Patrick’s Day Slam event in a Steel Cage match.

Rosa and Baker had their famous Lights Out match at the 2021 St Patrick’s Day Slam event, with their rivalry coming full circle a year later, this time with the title on the line.

Rosa spoke about her and Baker’s feud on the Under The Ring Podcast, where she said that the two’s rivalry isn’t going to end, comparing it to that of Steve Austin and The Rock.

She said:

“Every match that we had, it escalated to the next level. At first we had our match that was a regular match at Beach Break. Then, we had the tag matches and the blow off [Lights Outs]. The rivalry that we had, it’s real. Now that I took the title from her, it’s not something that is going to end. It’s like The Rock and Stone Cold (Steve Austin), something similar, or Trish (Stratus) and Lita. Something of that sort. Something that is never going to end. Our matches were definitely more physical in terms of female wrestling. We pushed a lot of boundaries that I don’t think people were used to seeing women in the mainstream media, doing something of that sort, especially on the last one. I probably watched it 10 times and I cannot tell you the amount of pain that everyone that was part of that match went through. From the wrestlers to the referees. It was very intense and we definitely…we had an opportunity to elevate women’s wrestling to another level with it,”

Thunder Rosa is set to defend the championship against Serena Deeb at AEW Double or Nothing, while Baker is set to face off against a joker entrant in the first round of the Women’s Owen Hart Cup Tournament. We ran down 7 possible women that the joker could be.
