ROH Girls’s World Champion Athena vs. Woman Frost
It has been 539 days since Woman Frost final stepped into the ring with “The Fallen Goddess” Athena, and remarkably that match throughout HONOR CLUB #9 was additionally a Proving Floor battle! At that time Athena was simply 138 days into her record-shattering championship reign, however even at that time, the second-longest reigning Girls’s World Champion in ROH historical past. That evening in Pittsburgh, Athena dispatched Frost in a little bit over 5 minutes, shattering the lady’s hopes of incomes a future championship match through 10 minute draw. Since that assembly Athena has gone on to show away 19 extra Proving Floor challenges, bringing her grand whole of Eliminator/Proving Floor victories to 31 matches. Add that to her 22 profitable title defenses over the past 677 days, and there’s no query that Athena is the spine of ROH at this second.
That being mentioned, it appears all that success has gone to her head as a result of since DEATH BEFORE DISHONOR 2024 in July the champion has solely fought three-matches, with simply a type of being a Proving Floor bout, selecting as a substitute to give attention to throwing the proper celebration for her record-setting championship reign when she’s not working in terror from Abadon. She’s alienated Bille Starkz, overly praised Lexy Nair for even the smallest factor, and appears relatively unfocused on the prospect of competitors.
Maybe that makes her simpler pickings for a challenger as hungry as Woman Frost, not straightforward thoughts you, there is no such thing as a actuality the place “The Fallen Goddess” would ever be a straightforward foe however maybe a better struggle than it will be if she was 100% zoned in on the struggle at hand.
Will we see Athena fail on the Proving Floor for the primary time in her historic reign, or will Woman Frost come up brief tonight as she did again in April 2023?
