Fans have given high praise to the match that took place between Toni Storm and Mariah May at AEW All In. May went over to become the new AEW Women’s World champion. While speaking with James Dator of SBNation, Storm claimed she’s retiring and leaving pro wrestling..
During the AEW Full Gear conference call, AEW CEO Tony Khan discussed this storyline retirement.
“Timeless Toni Storm has been a great world champion for AEW. I think reports of her demise have been greatly exaggerated. I still expect Toni Storm will have a great wrestling career, but she’s really struggling, clearly, with what’s happened. She lost the world title, she lost her protege. I think she feels like she lost everything and now she’s lost. I hope Toni Storm can find herself and come back to us in AEW because Timeless Toni Storm is a great part of AEW.”
