During a recent interview with “Wrestling With The Week“, veteran wrestler Paul Wight stated that Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D and Thunder Rosa changed how we look at women’s wrestling. He said,
“You never know when two girls are going to go out there and bodyslam each other on thumbtacks like Thunder Rosa and Dr. Britt Baker and bust each other open. That would never….NEVER happen (in WWE). When I saw that, I was like, ‘Oh my God, this is great. Oh, someone is going to get in trouble.’ There are two women that raised the wrestling bar. I’ve said the same thing before about Becky (Lynch), Charlotte (Flair), Sasha (Banks), and Bayley.

He explained that Becky Lynch was one of his favorite wrestlers of all time. He talked about her execution inside the squared circle and through his exposition, it was clear he had closely followed her work. Not to mention, he also talked about Charlotte Flair and her impact on wrestling.
“Charlotte is a crazy athlete and a whole other level. To see them get the recognition they deserve because they started that. Then you come to AEW and the women’s division is picking up. You see a match like Thunder Rosa and Britt Baker, they set the bar. If you’re a dude in the back, you better lace your boots up and get your shit together. There are going to be a lot of dudes getting their TV time cut.” (H/t Fightful for transcription)
