Pro wrestling’s high seas just got steamier.
In what’s already being called the “kiss heard ‘round the ring,” a leaked photo from Chris Jericho’s infamous Rock ‘N’ Wrestling Rager at Sea has fans buzzing — and no, it’s not about a surprise return or a steel cage match on the deck. Instead, it’s a steamy shot of AEW stars Nyla Rose and Thunder Rosa caught in a passionate kiss during what appeared to be a wild night of partying on the cruise ship.
The photo, which surfaced late last night on social media before being taken down (but not before fans screenshotted it, naturally), shows the two wrestling icons in swimwear, drinks in hand, locked in an intimate embrace under the moonlight, surrounded by cheering guests.
So, was it real? A playful moment? A publicity stunt? Or something more?
A Wild Cruise Tradition
The Jericho Cruise is known for its unpredictable mix of wrestling, rock concerts, and unscripted mayhem. Over the years, fans have witnessed impromptu matches, celebrity karaoke, and even heated rivalries sparked at the buffet line. But this? This takes it to a new level.
According to one anonymous cruiser, “There was a beach party theme that night. Everyone was letting loose. Nyla and Thunder had been dancing together most of the evening, joking around, sharing drinks. Then boom — it just happened. People were cheering like it was a title win.”
From Rivals to… Something Else?
Fans will remember the intense in-ring rivalry between Nyla Rose and Thunder Rosa over the past couple of years. Their hard-hitting matches in AEW were the stuff of highlight reels. But backstage, the two have reportedly always shared mutual respect — and possibly, a deeper connection.
While neither Nyla nor Rosa has made a public statement about the photo, both women are known for being outspoken, proud, and unafraid to challenge norms in the world of professional wrestling.
One fan tweeted: “Two badass women wrestlers being real and unapologetic on their own terms? That’s the kind of energy I’m here for.”
What Happens on the Cruise… Goes Viral
Despite efforts to remove the photo from certain online platforms, it continues to circulate, igniting debates ranging from privacy concerns to representation in wrestling. Some have speculated that the moment may even play into a future AEW storyline — but others believe it was just two friends sharing a personal moment away from the cameras and scripts.
Whether it was romance, revelry, or just a fleeting vacation spark, one thing is certain: the Jericho Cruise delivered yet another unforgettable moment, and the wrestling world is talking.
As of now, AEW has not issued a comment, and both Nyla Rose and Thunder Rosa have remained silent on social media — perhaps letting the speculation ride the waves for now.
Stay tuned, wrestling fans. This story might just be getting started.
