New AEW women’s champion Thunder Rosa commented on her matches with Britt Baker being criticized, during an interview with NBC Sports Boston:
“Everybody’s gonna criticize no matter what. I mean, even on Wednesday, people were criticizing. ‘Why are you guys — why is there so much blood? Why is there so much? Why are you so violent? Why is this? Why is that?’ It’s like people are programmed a certain way and they have been programmed for professional wrestling for decades a certain way because of how things have been handled before.”
“You guys can criticize us all you want but we’re working really hard and every single company I feel, because we’re changing things little by little and I’ll tell you, myself, I’m taking that to a next level.”
Thunder Rosa addresses the criticism she and Britt Baker received for bleeding during their Steel Cage match from the people who have been programmed to think a certain way for a very long time. ? pic.twitter.com/6PbOw1fzpi
