Thunder Rosa Announces Busted Open Departure as WWE Radio Premieres

Thunder Rosa has announced she is leaving Busted Open Radio.

Rosa confirmed her departure from Busted Open Radio via a social media post, following earlier reporting by the Wrestling Observer Newsletter.

“After four unforgettable years, it’s time to turn the page,” she wrote. “Some chapters in life change you forever, and this has been one of them. Being part of Busted Open has been so much more than sitting behind a microphone. It gave me the opportunity to share my perspective, connect with wrestling fans around the world, and celebrate the sport that has given me so much.”

The AEW star thanked Tony Khan for believing in her, as well as co‑hosts Dave LaGreca, Tommy Dreamer, Bully Ray, and Mark Henry.

“While this chapter comes to an end, my journey continues. I’m excited for what’s ahead, and I can’t wait to keep sharing my passion for professional wrestling with all of you,” she continued. “The microphone may be off for now, but my voice isn’t going anywhere. This isn’t goodbye. It’s simply the beginning of a new chapter. I’ll see you all very soon.”

WWE partners with Sirius XM

The departure comes as WWE announced earlier this week that it will take over Sirius XM’s Pro Wrestling Nation 24/7 channel, rebranding it as WWE Radio. The channel officially launches on July 27 and will feature commentary for every WWE Premium Live Event, as well as audio simulcasts of select television programs. Additionally, the WWE‑Fanatics podcast slate, which includes Cody Rhodes, The Undertaker, and Stephanie McMahon, will be broadcast on the new network.

Busted Open will remain on the channel. LaGreca emphasized that the show will stay “exactly the same” despite the rebranding.
