Rok-C was crowned ROH women’s world champ after winning a tournament. That was the primary focus of ROH’s women’s division this year, so it stands to reason that Rok-C would be dubbed Female Wrestler of the Year.

ROH returns with Supercard of Honor on April 1. Keeping all this talent in the mix would be a strong step toward ensuring an exciting lineup.
