Athena speaks on some well known talent scheduled for her all women's wrestling show.
Last month, Athena announced an all-women's event 'Who Runs The World? for August 9th. The event is set to be promoted by Athena's Metroplex Wrestling promotion. With the event, Athena is bringing in some familiar faces to fans of AEW and other major promotions, including TNA Women's Knockouts Champion Masha Slamovich.
While speaking to Sports Illustrated's The Takedown in a new interview, Athena highlighted some of the more well known names set for 'Who Runs The World?'.
"I love Masha [Slamovich] to death. She's such an amazing athlete. She's a little crazy, but she's gonna give you a thousand percent. Vert Vixen, just an amazing, amazing woman. Hyan, who's traveled all around the world, including her too. But then we have Abadon (freak out gesture), absolutely amazing as well. I've worked with them before. They have so much heart and passion for what we do, but all my heavy hitters for the announcement reside in Texas and I'm very excited."
Athena is currently scheduled to take part in a fatal four way match on tonight's edition of AEW Dynamite to decide the number one entrant in the women's Casino Gauntlet at AEW All In.
