Toni Storm says she’s committed to AEW.
At present, there are few bigger stars in AEW than Toni Storm. The the 29-year-old is currently in the midst of her record-breaking fourth reign as Women’s World Champion, and, particularly since debuting the ‘Timeless’ character, she’s become an invaluable asset to the company. Now, after making the move from WWE over three years ago, it seems that Storm is entirely committed to AEW and isn’t looking to wrestle elsewhere in the future.
Speaking on The Sandman Podcast, Storm called herself a ‘lifer’ for AEW.
“When I’m done wrestling, you’ll never see me again. You’ll never see me in any other capacity, or in any other company, for that matter. Exclusive. I will vanish with that. and there’s no, like, encore. This is it. I’m not doing anything else. Like, where would I go? What would I do? Because I’m on a long deal for AEW, like I’m signed my life to AEW. I’m on a five-year deal, and I can’t remember how long. But I’m a lifer for AEW. There’s no like, ‘oh, well, we’ll see what happens.’ That does happen a lot in wrestling, though, yes. Random crazy shit happens. But as of now, AEW for life.”
