Toni Storm claims that she is “retiring” from professional wrestling following loss to Mariah May

In an interview with SBNation.com, former AEW women’s champion Toni Storm claimed that she is “retiring” from professional wrestling following her loss to Mariah May back in August at AEW All In. Here is an excerpt from the article…

“Storm apologized to her fans for ‘being such a failure,’ adding that they won’t be seeing her in AEW, NJPW, CMLL, or anywhere else in wrestling. ‘I’m not used to being a loser,’ Storm said, ‘I’ve failed at everything. I lost in AEW, I lost in Japan, I lost in Mexico. This is the last you’ll hear from me again. Enjoy Mariah May as your champion. You can all enjoy that.’

Storm said she hasn’t spoken to AEW President and CEO Tony Khan about her decision to hang up the boots, confirming that this story is the first time he’ll learn about her decision as well. A despondent Storm continually apologized, and when asked if there was anything that could change her mind she asked me, the interviewer, to try and convince her to keep wrestling.”
