"I left it up to him" - AEW star opens up about how Tony Khan has handled her character
Thunder Rosa recently commented on how Tony Khan treats her character in AEW, complimenting his approach to creative decisions regarding the roster.
Thunder Rosa defended her AEW Women's Championship earlier this month against Nyla Rose at the Battle of the Belts II event. Much of her storyline has been credited to the creative decisions made by Khan, which have worked out well for La Mera Mera.
In a recent episode of the MackMania Podcast, Thunder Rosa spoke about how Khan has handled her character.
“He listens, and when you make sense, he will listen to what you have to say. Sometimes I feel people might think, ‘why is he doing that?’ And I see that a lot on the internet, you guys have to believe in his vision, it is what it is. That’s one of the things that I have learned about him. Everything that he’s done from when I first started to now, I left it up to him," Thunder Rosa said. [23:10-23:52]
