Some were understandably heartbroken after the news came out.

Some expect Jade Cargill to be the next AEW Women's Champion.

A couple of fans said Toni Storm would finally become the women's champion.

However, a few fans were unhappy with the limited time Thunder Rosa got to her announcement.

This fan does not want Brit Baker to be champion again.

The Mexican wrestler won her first AEW Women's Championship on the March 16 edition episode of Dynamite after getting the better of Britt Baker in a steel cage bout.

Thunder Rosa hit back at critics for recent controversy in AEW

The former Ring of Honor star has hit back at her critics after 'sandbagging controversy' in a match against Marina Shafir.

The match between the two superstars occurred on the June 8, 2022, edition of Dynamite. During the encounter, she was accused of "sandbagging" and "no-selling" Shafir's moves. However, she later denied the allegations and was seen wearing a "sandbagging" t-shirt during one of this month's episodes.

Speaking on an episode of Busted Open Radio, Rosa said she would make money from the t-shirt.

“So using the sandbagging t-shirt is a way for me to say keep bullying me because I’m gonna make money out of it. All right, straight up. You’re gonna call me fat. Well, guess what? I’ll be the biggest fat b*tch in the world. Boom,” she said.

No return date has been confirmed for Thunder Rosa yet. Details of her injury have not been disclosed either. It remains to be seen what the future holds for her.

The Sportskeeda community wishes Rosa a full and speedy recovery. We can't wait to see her back in the ring.
