Even Longer: Update On Thunder Rosa's AEW Injury Absence (And It's Not Good)

What might seem like an injury that will only keep someone out of action for a short time can turn into months and even then it might be even longer. That seems to be the case again, as the latest update on an injured former star is even worse than expected.

Back in September, Thunder Rosa was stripped of the AEW Women’s World Title due to a back injury. According to Fightful Select, Rosa is still not medically cleared to wrestle and there is a concern that she could need surgery. There is no word on when she could return to the ring. Rosa has not wrestled since August 10, 2022 but has since begun working as part of the AEW Spanish announce team.

Opinion: At this point, I’m not sure how much of a surprise this really is. Rosa has not wrestled in over eight months and there has been nothing to suggest that she is ready to return to the ring.
