Nigel McGuinness Alleges Toni Storm Left Charlton Heston “Limp And Withered Like An Over-Watered Plant”
Toni Storm is one of wrestling’s biggest blink-and-you’ll-miss-it superstars when it comes to offbeat phrases. Of course, Storm’s original quote — “Chin up, tits out, and watch for the shoe” — has become a battle-cry for countless underdogs. But with every passing match and interview segment, she offers a bevvy of offbrand catchphrases that would make Muhammad Ali proud. Or cringe. Either/or.
Such was the case at AEW Dynasty where, as Storm was putting her AEW Women’s Championship on the line against Megan Bayne, it was commentator Nigel McGuinness who offered up Storm’s latest quip.
“Toni Storm, who said to previous challengers, ‘You can pry my title from my cold, dead tits; a line stolen from Charlton Heston. Happened during a raucous weekend in Monte Carlo where she left Heston, and I quote, ‘limp and withered like an over-watered plant,” McGuinness alleged.
Heston is, of course, a Hollywood actor, famous for his roles as biblical hero, Moses, in The Ten Commandments; George Taylor from The Planet of the Apes; Dr. Robert Nevill in The Omega Man; and the titular Ben-Hur.
Speaking of titular, Megan Bayne was unable to pry the title from Toni Storm’s grasp, as Storm defeated Bayne with a rollup at AEW Dynasty.
