Thunder Rosa returned to in-ring action on the December 23rd episode of AEW Collision. She also did so with a memorable entrance, as she rode on a low rider. It turns out that car had a bit of history behind it as well.
The tag team match, where Skye Blue and Julia Hart took on Thunder Rosa and Abadon, provided a preview of Julia Hart\’s TBS Championship defense against Abadon. Of course, in San Antonio, the attention was on Thunder Rosa.
Thunder Rosa\’s Special Entrance
Thunder Rosa\’s low rider entrance had a unique touch, as many fans called out the fact that it looked like the car featured in the 1997 film \”Selena.\” Many fans will remember that car if they\’ve seen the Jennifer Lopez movie.

In the \”Selena\” movie, their tour bus breaks down, but they soon find help. A low rider shows up, and they can\’t believe that they get to help Selena out of a jam. Many fans know that low rider by the unique paint job, and that is exactly what showed up on AEW Collision this week.
Although it is unconfirmed whether it is the exact car from the film, the \’Selena car\’ is known to make appearances around the San Antonio area. This adds credibility to the possibility that Thunder Rosa used either the actual car for her entrance. Regardless.
Thunder Rosa\’s AEW Hiatus
In the end, Thunder Rosa\’ team secured the win on AEW Collision, marking a successful comeback to the ring. Thunder Rosa hadn\’t wrestled since August 10th, 2022 prior to that. Needless to say, fans in San Antonio had a night to remember.
Thunder Rosa was still working for AEW during her time away from the ring. She provided Spanish language commentary for the show. It\’s unknown if she will continue that gig after her in-ring return.
