Last Bow? AEW’s Toni Storm Announces Retirement From Wrestling In Big Surprise

She’s done? Retirement is a tricky situation in wrestling as you can regularly see a wrestler end their career out for a variety of reasons. This could be due to an accumulation of injuries or someone wanting to step away for one reason or another. Unlike other sports though, there is always the chance that it is part of a storyline, which is what we might be seeing again.

During a new interview with SB Nation, AEW’s Toni Storm announced that she is retiring from AEW and professional wrestling as a whole, effective immediately. Storm went on to say that she had not talked to AEW President Tony Khan about her decision and said Mariah May caused everything to fall apart. There is no word on whether this is a legitimate retirement or part of Storm’s current storyline in AEW. Storm has not wrestled in AEW since August but she has wrestled in Japan and Mexico since.

Storm is quite the star in AEW. Check out her time there:

Opinion: This feels like something that Storm is saying as part of her likely return to AEW, which would make sense for her. If nothing else, May is going to need another challenger in the near future and Storm has unfinished business with her going forward. It would not surprise me to see Storm back this weekend at Full Gear, or perhaps shortly thereafter, which should be interesting.

What do you think of Storm’s statements? Do you think she will wrestle again? Let us know in the comments below.
