Athena defeated Billie Starkz to retain the ROH Women’s World Title last night at ROH Final Battle 2024.
During the post-show media scrum, Athena discussed her ring gear, drawing inspiration from the Batman supervillain Two-Face.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On her Two-Face inspired ring attire: “Two-Face. I’ve been told that I have a mean streak in me. It’s really unbelievable. I am the sweetest thing in the world. I’m a big Batman fan. Batman is my absolute favorite superhero. I love all the villains because at any point in time Batman could just not be good. The villains really stand out to me. Harvey Dent with him fighting the good parts of himself with the bad. It’s so beautiful and chaotic that I felt like I had to do an ode.”
On being glad that people understood the reference: “I’m just a big fan of that particular Two-Face. I’m glad that everyone understood. It was a lot of, I’ve been told I have a mean streak and can lose my temper. Maybe, a teeny bit. I felt like having the different sides of Athena, the good side meets the teeny bit angry side, was a nice conglomeration. No gimmick infringement intended.”
