Thunder Rosa is making her comeback this Saturday at AEW Collision, where she will face Julia Hart in a highly anticipated match. This event marks Rosa’s first in-ring appearance since her break following the All In event last July, as she continues her pursuit of the AEW Women’s World Title.
Background on Thunder Rosa’s Hiatus and Return
Rosa’s last bout was in the Casino Gauntlet Match at All In, which Athena won. After that, she stepped away from competition but resurfaced on the February 18 episode of Dynamite in a backstage segment alongside Kris Statlander. Both former women’s champions expressed their intent to confront the current titleholder, Thekla. Although Statlander revealed she is unable to compete at the moment, Rosa is now cleared to return and motivated to move forward.
Julia Hart: The Next Challenge in Rosa’s Path
Before Thunder Rosa can challenge Thekla for the AEW Women’s World Title, she must overcome Julia Hart, who is aligned with Thekla as part of her “Triangle of Madness” faction. Hart presents a significant obstacle as Rosa reenters the competition, making their match a pivotal moment on the road to the championship.
Event Details and Broadcast Information
The AEW Collision episode featuring this matchup will be broadcast this Saturday at 8 PM ET on TNT and HBO Max, promising an exciting evening for wrestling fans eager to see how Thunder Rosa performs after her hiatus.
