Toni Storm hasn't appeared in AEW since losing the AEW Women's World Championship to Mariah May at AEW All In on August 25. Storm recently competed in Stardom and CMLL. The former AEW Women's World Champion lost to Mayu Iwatani for the IWGP Women's Title at Stardom Nagoya Golden Fight in Japan. She was also unable to win against La Catalina at CMLL Super Viernes in Mexico.
In an interview with SB Nation, Toni Storm announced her retirement from wrestling.
"I’m not used to being a loser. 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.
AEW is just fine without me. Everything is going well for AEW. They don’t need Toni Storm.
Chin down. T*ts in. Don’t bother watching for the shoe."
