A Ring of Honor Women’s title match appears to be on the horizon for next month’s ROH Supercard of Honor streaming special.
In a social media clip from Thursday seen below, former AEW Women’s World Champion Thunder Rosa issued a challenge to reigning ROH Women’s titleholder Athena for Friday, July 11 at the Esports Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Athena has not responded as of yet, but very well could as part of Thursday night’s ROH x CMLL Global Wars when the tag match featuring Athena and ROH Women’s TV Champion Red Velvet vs. Rosa and Persephone match from last week will air.
Rosa and Athena were also part of Wednesday’s four-way on AEW Dynamite to crown the first entrant into the women’s Casino Gauntlet that is part of AEW All In: Texas on Saturday, July 12. The two were also part of an eight-woman tag team match as part of last Saturday’s AEW Collision where Velvet interfered to cost Rosa’s team the match.
Assuming the match is confirmed, Rosa would be looking for her first ROH gold while Athena is closing in on 1000 days as ROH Women’s Champion.
As of now, the only match that has been announced for the show is the finals of the inaugural ROH Women’s Pure title tournament which has yet to start or the participants announced.
