Thunder Rosa is now All Elite. Making her AEW debut last year, Thunder Rosa challenged then-AEW Women's Champion Hiraku Shida to a match for the title at All Out.

Earlier this year, Thunder Rosa defeated Britt Baker in an Unsanctioned Lights-Out match which became the first-ever women's match to main-event Dynamite. Both Thunder Rosa and Britt Baker delivered a Match of the Year contender, receiving critical acclaim for the fight.
Thunder Rosa's AEW run sparked rumors of her leaving NWA last year, which were put to rest by NWA President Billy Corgan himself:
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
"No. You have to love press and media reports that don't contact the company she is under contract with but instead listen to someone who has my email address but doesn't write and ask. Thunder is under contract through [sic] 2021 and there's a reason for that (it's called excellence and faith)." said Corgan
Given the fact that there is a working relationship between AEW and NWA that will allow Thunder Rosa to appear at events for either wrestling promotion, her move to AEW will not be that big of a disadvantage for NWA.
On the other hand, Thunder Rosa's inclusion will be a big boost for the AEW Women's division, which doesn't have many established stars. Given the history Thunder Rosa shares with current AEW Women's Champion Britt Baker, it will be interesting to see how AEW revisits the Thunder Rosa/Britt Baker rivalry.
The internet is full of praise for Thunder Rosa
Thunder Rosa debuted in IMPACT wrestling at this year's Slammiversary PPV, making headlines after being revealed as the mystery opponent challenging Deonna Purrazzo for the Knockouts Championship. Though she lost the match, fans have taken to social media to shower Thunder Rosa with praise for being an absolute workhorse.
For those who don't know, Thunder Rosa is the owner/promoter of Mission Pro Wrestling, an all-female pro-wrestling company, which had an event named "Jacksonville Taco Festival" on the same day as IMPACT's Slammiversary PPV.
Not only did Thunder Rosa fulfill her responsibilities with Mission Pro Wrestling, but she also went on to have an absolute banger with Deonna Purrazzo just hours later. No mean feat, indeed.
