Thunder Rosa was asked what needs to change in wrestling for the playing field to be more level for women:
“I think just in general in sports, people need to understand that we are able to sell tickets. That we’re able to put people in the seats. WNBA is a perfect example of that.
Women’s wrestling has been going strong for a while, and I feel like a lot of the very strong matches have been the women’s matches and the pay-per-views. So I know we can do that if we’re given the opportunity in the time to on television.
I think it’s so competitive for women to be on TV because there’s only certain spots that we can be in. But I think that, for example, in AEW, what we were able to accomplish a couple years ago and even now with some of the matches because they’ve been pretty intense. Women are able to show that we can just go as hard and we can be as good as the guys.”
