"It was really cool to pick his brain on many, many things" AEW star comments about her relationship with Tony Khan
AEW star Thunder Rosa recently shared some positive remarks on her working relationship with President Tony Khan.
Through several conversations with Khan, Rosa has personally seen his business acumen. The latter also gave the former leeway to operate her Mission Pro Wrestling promotion. La Mera Mera runs the Texas-based promotion for the sole purpose of training a new breed of female wrestlers.
With Khan's help, Rosa was able to make MPW known and is set to have a big wrestling show in Dallas, Texas. The show will be a part of GCW's The Collective event scheduled for the same weekend as WrestleMania 38.
In an interview with Ten Count, Rosa stated that Tony was always a few steps ahead of others, and she noted that he has always been very approachable.
"I love Tony because he is just like, a genius. I always say this, like he’s always thinking five steps ahead and you never know where he’s at in those five steps. It was really cool to pick his brain on many, many things. He’s just very warm. He’s always been, from the moment I met him, he’s always been very warm and I was like ‘this is kind of weird,’ you know?’" Rosa said. [H/T Wrestling Inc.]
