It’s Toni (Storm) time!
Following the release of its yearly PWI 500 edition, Pro Wrestling Illustrated has officially unveiled the talents included in the 2024 PWI Women’s 250, which recognizes the best women across the pro wrestling industry. The evaluation period for this list spanned from October 1, 2023 until September 30, 2024.
Topping this year’s list is former AEW Women’s Champion Toni Storm, whose nine-month reign as champion catapulted her to the forefront of AEW’s women’s division. Amidst her reign, the “Timeless” performer also crafted a slow-burning yet dramatic storyline with her admirer-turned-friend Mariah May (#9). May has since turned her back on Storm and later dethroned her at AEW All In. Following her loss at All In, Storm returned to STARDOM, where she now finds herself aligned with Mina Shirakawa (#16).
In ranking number one on the PWI Women’s 250, Storm has also cemented herself as the first AEW wrestler to reach this respective feat.
Trailing closely behind Storm in the rankings is TNA Knockouts Champion Jordynne Grace (#2), former WWE Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley, former World of STARDOM Champion Maika, and former NJPW STRONG Women’s Champion Stephanie Vaquer (#5).
Rounding out the top ten are Marigold World Champion Sareee (#6), former WWE Women’s Champion Bayley (#7), former TBS Champion Willow Nightingale (#8), Mariah May (#9), and ROH Women’s Champion Athena (#10). NXT Women’s Champion Roxanne Perez follows them at #11.
