Thunder Rosa recently won the AEW Women's World Championship, and former WWE star Jake Atlas couldn't help but be happy for a fellow Mexican competitor.
Rosa beat Britt Baker in a steel cage match in her hometown of San Antonio, Texas, at the St. Patrick's Day Slam edition of AEW Dynamite. The match was a bloody battle that featured gruesome bumps, whether from a chair or pile of tacks. After executing a Fire Thunder Driver onto the tacks, La Mera Mera won the title.
Later, Atlas sent a heartfelt message to Rosa. He said the newly-crowned champion was a hustler, adding that she made Mexican culture proud:
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
Atlas signed with AEW on January 4, 2022. He had his first AEW match on Rampage on January 7, losing to Adam Cole. During the match, he got injured. Atlas later revealed a torn ACL and since hasn't wrestled.
Possible future opponents for Thunder Rosa
With her AEW Women's World Championship win, Thunder Rosa might face several challenges along the way. Britt Baker will invoke her rematch clause as she'll seek revenge against Rosa.
Jade Cargill might have something to say as she called out the women's champion on Twitter. Cargill said she could easily win two belts as she previously beat Rosa last year at the New Year's Smash edition of AEW Dynamite.
Leyla Hirsch could also be a worthy opponent as she's familiar with the champion. Last week, the two wrestled on Dynamite for a women's title shot, which Rosa won.
