The brand new partnership between WWE and SiriusXM had plenty of people talking as SiriusXM is home to the well-known “Busted Open” Radio show. The show has covered multiple promotions over time, but with the brand new deal, many doubted whether an organization like AEW can be covered favorably, and even in any respect. An indication that AEW will likely not be covered on “Busted Open” going forward is that current AEW star and regular host on “Busted Open” Thunder Rosa has announced that she will likely be leaving the show.
The previous AEW Women’s World Champion took to her X (formerly referred to as Twitter) account to pen a heartfelt farewell to the “Busted Open” family, thanking everyone for allowing her to be a component of the show for the last 4 years. She also thanked AEW President Tony Khan for trusting her to represent AEW on such a well known platform, and promised that this departure is not a goodbye, it’s the start of a brand new chapter.
After 4 unforgettable years, it is time to turn the page.
Some chapters in life change you eternally, and this has been one among them.
Being a part of Busted Open has been so way more than sitting behind a microphone. It gave me the chance to share my perspective, connect… pic.twitter.com/QEVeHC0lem

“Busted Open” will now be a part of WWE Radio, a 24/7 radio station that may launch on July 27 ahead of WWE SummerSlam 2026. The core forged of the show will remain, including host Dave LaGreca, Tommy Dreamer, Nic Nemeth, and WWE Hall of Famer’s Bully Ray and Mark Henry. The station will even feature a lot of shows that SiriusXM already had on the air like “Low cost Heat Live” with Peter Rosenburg and “Notsam Wrestling” with Sam Roberts. WWE Radio will even air episodes of the most important WWE podcasts, including “What Do You Wanna Talk About?” with Cody Rhodes, and “Six Feet Under” with The Undertaker.
Quite a few fans did call in to “Busted Open” following the announcement to ask what is going to change in regards to the show, in addition to asking if AEW will likely be covered in any respect, to which Dave LaGreca and Bully Ray stated that nothing will change in regards to the show, while also managing to avoid mentioning AEW in any capability.
