Thunder Rosa is off the AEW All Out card through injury – but she can’t even stand two of her colleagues that are replacing her!
The latest AEW Dynamite broadcast was a shocking two-hour turn of events. Among the twists was the announcement of an interim AEW Women’s World Championship, the holder of which will be crowned at All Out in a four-way between Dr Britt Baker, D.M.D, Jamie Hayter, Hikaru Shida, and Toni Storm.
Fightful Select have since come through with a huge update on Thunder Rosa, who allegedly has heat with both Baker and Hayter. Despite their success opposite each other, she and Britt “can’t stand” each other. They will, however, remain professional for the remainder of the time they’re colleagues.
Rosa’s heat with Jamie Hayter supposedly stems from the latter having her nose broken in the ring courtesy of a stiff shot from the Women’s World Champion. Though there was speculation that Thunder Rosa hid in a bathroom after the accident, though this has gone unconfirmed.

Talent remains split on the situation; some believe Thunder Rosa fights hard to obtain bookings for younger talent, while others believe she has developed an “ego”.
News of an injury to Thunder Rosa broke prior to Dynamite and was confirmed on the broadcast itself. It’s speculated as being bulging discs but again, this is yet to be officially confirmed. Toni Storm was believed to have dethroned her of the AEW Women’s World Championship at All Out.
