@kunalsummerAthena spoke at the ROH Death Before Dishonor post-show media scrum about the physical toll of her championship run. She confirmed dislocating a kneecap, suffering severe ankle sprains, and sustaining a serious neck injury while holding the ROH Women's World Title. Despite the damage, she said the belt meant the world to her and to fans watching from home who hope for a chance to face her or other champions in the ring. Athena stated she defends the title for herself and for ROH. She described "forever" as a motivating force defined by determination and refusing to bow to anyone who makes you feel less than. "That's just me," she said. "I am forever me."
