This past week on Dynamite, Rosa interrupted former champion, Kris Statlander. Rosa, straight out of the gate, challenges the new champion, Thekla. Although Thunder Rosa might have been watching closely while she was on the shelf, there\u2019s a difference between watching and experiencing the toxicity of deadly Austrian.<\/p>\n<p>Taking on Julia Hart, Thunder Rosa will look to throw her name into title contention. However, with fellow Sister of Sin Skye Blue standing ringside, there will be craftiness and underhanded tactics. Plus, with the potential ring rust, Rosa may be in for a rude awakening.<\/p>\n<p>A lot has changed in the women\u2019s division in Thunder Rosa\u2019s absence. As much as La Mera Mera wants to find her position again in the pack, it\u2019s not going to be easy. More than just getting tangled in Thekla\u2019s webs or with the Triangle of Madness, but if she gets in the Cosmic Killer\u2019s warpath. As a wildcard, Rosa could be about to mess up someone\u2019s plans.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">.<a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/callmekrisstat?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@callmekrisstat<\/a> is dead set on revenge against the newly crowned <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/AEW?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#AEW<\/a> Women\u2019s World Champion Thekla, but <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/thunderrosa22?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@thunderrosa22<\/a> is cleared and ready for a fight!<\/p>\n<p>Watch <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/AEWDynamite?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#AEWDynamite<\/a> LIVE on TBS &amp; HBO Max <a  href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/rM9E810RFd\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/rM9E810RFd<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 All Elite Wrestling (@AEW) <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AEW\/status\/2024312419258970493?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">February 19, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h2>Jet Set Rodeo vs. The Demand<\/h2>\n<p>Two t-shirts later and a BTE joke about cockerels on horses, the fresh AEW World Trios champions will defend their titles for the first time.

Page is the number 1 contender for the AEW World Championship, and on Wednesday night, Page made a deal with the devil that he may have doubts over. Page admitted something that many, including myself, have stated before, that the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/08\/18\/mirroring-the-history-of-hangman-adam-page-vs-mjf\/\" target=\"_self\">Anxious Millennial Cowboy and MJF are mirrors of each other<\/a>. Yet, with his mind and focus on the AEW World Championship, will history repeat itself?<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, the last time Hangman Adam Page was a trios champion with The Young Bucks, holding the ROH Six-Man Tag Team Championship, do you know who beat them for the gold? It was the GOA with Brian Cage when they were The Mogul Embassy.<\/p>\n<p>Could history repeat itself? Differently, the GOA has more than just experience on its side. They have a man who is out of this world. Ricochet, the AEW National Champion. If Ricochet were butter, he would be on a roll. With title defenses in Japan, the UK, Mexico, AEW, ROH, CMLL, Rev Pro, etc., the momentum is there.<\/p>\n<p>The action will be phenomenal, but with Hangman Adam Page, you always know there\u2019s going to be more to the story.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Matches Announced:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Thunder Rosa vs. Julia Hart<\/li>\n<li>CMLL World Heavyweight Championship: Claudio Castagnoli vs. Josh Alexander<\/li>\n<li>AEW World Trios Championship: Jet Set Rodeo vs. The Demand<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>More From LWOS Pro Wrestling<\/strong><amp-ad data-block-on-consent=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"600\" layout=\"fixed\" data-multi-size=\"300x250,300x600\" data-multi-size-validation=\"false\" type=\"doubleclick\" data-slot=\"\/15188745,22512265771\/FS-lastwordonsports-AMP\/AMP-2\" data-enable-refresh=\"30\" data-lazy-fetch=\"true\" data-loading-strategy=\"1.25\" rtc-config=\"{ &quot;vendors&quot;: { &quot;t13&quot;: { &quot;TAG_ID&quot;: &quot;4f799893-5665-4629-b0fc-8b97d3569fd6&quot;, &quot;ACCOUNT_ID&quot;: &quot;9a3c6c23-453a-4cba-b419-30b908f39a50&quot; }, &quot;aps&quot;: { &quot;PUB_ID&quot;: &quot;600&quot;, &quot;PUB_UUID&quot;: &quot;16268e26-dabe-4bf4-a28f-b8f4ee192ed3&quot;, &quot;PARAMS&quot;: { &quot;amp&quot;: &quot;1&quot; } }, &quot;criteo&quot;: { &quot;NETWORK_ID&quot;: &quot;4905&quot;, &quot;ZONE_ID&quot;: &quot;1382491&quot;, &quot;PUBLISHER_SUB_ID&quot;: &quot;FS-lastwordonsports-AMP-2&quot; }, &quot;medianet&quot;: { &quot;CID&quot;: &quot;8CU8ZT2C4&quot; } } }\"><\/amp-ad><\/p>\n<p><em>Header photo \u2013 AEW \u2013 Stay tun<\/em><em>ed to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-auth=\"NotApplicable\" data-linkindex=\"1\" target=\"_self\">Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/a><span>\u00a0<\/span>for more on the AEW Collision preview and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.<span>\u00a0<\/span><\/em><em>You can always count on LWOPW to be on top of the major news in the wrestling world.
