Today’s AEW Battle of the Belts II television special featured Thunder Rosa defending the women’s championship against Nyla Rose following multiple attacks by the Native Beast on AEW programming.
After a competitive back and forth Rosa managed to defeat Rose after catching her with a frankensteiner. This marks her first successful title defense since she won the belt from Britt Baker at last months’ St. Patrick’s Day Slam. Highlights from the matchup can be found below.
