Thekla is the AEW Women’s World Champion and one of the most popular new stars that AEW has to offer.
If you think her “Toxic Spider” character is tossed together at random, think again. When Thekla walks out on the AEW stage with her championship belt, she’s intense, polished, and doing everything she does for a reason. She’s an artist and wants everyone to know it.
In a wide-ranging interview with The Takedown on SI, Thekla candidly dug into the following topics:
Life as a new talent in AEW
Competing with women on the AEW roster who had longer tenure than her
Being a control freak
The biggest differences between working in Japan and for AEW
Her career goals in pro wrestling
Hope you guys check out the full interview right now!
