Toni Storm On Thunder Rosa: She Is A Swear Word In My Household

After being sidelined with a back injury for over a year, Thunder Rosa was intent on reclaiming the title she previously vacated. On April 21, Rosa will have the opportunity to do just that as she challenges Toni Storm for the AEW Women’s World Championship at the 2024 Dynasty pay-per-view. 

Before Rosa vies for the title again, though, Toni Storm has issued a candid statement regarding her return as well as their previous history. 

“Right now, the thorn in my side is a woman by the name of Thunder Rosa. She has beaten me twice. I am yet to beat her. She is my arch nemesis,” Storm told Going Ringside. “I do not take to her too kindly. She is a swear word in my household. You don’t talk about her in my mansion, but at Dynasty on April 21st, we have a big pay-per-view.  It’s in Saint Louis. That’s going to be the night where I finally beat that dirty rotten Thunder Rosa.”

Storm vs. Rosa History

As Storm alluded to, Rosa enters this Dynasty title match with two prior victories over her, the first of which took place at the 2022 AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door pay-per-view. On this occasion, Rosa successfully defended the AEW Women’s Championship.

Two months later, Rosa would vacate the title due to a lingering back injury. According to Storm, though, Rosa’s decision to give up the title stems from her inability to live up to the pressures of being the champion.

“She was injured. She had to leave. She had to leave because she couldn’t handle the pressure of being a champion. She had a back injury because she was not strong enough to carry this mountain of gold right here. Then I came in and became champion. I’ve been champion three times [now].”
