Tay Melo: Returning To The Ring With STARDOM Was Literally A Dream Come True, I Can’t Wait To Go Back
Tay Melo talks her return to the ring with STARDOM earlier this year.
Tay Melo reflects on returning to the ring with STARDOM earlier this year.
In January of this year at STARDOM New Year’s Dream, Tay Melo made her return to the ring after stepping away for over two years to have her and Sammy Guevara’s first child together, Luna. At New Year’s Dream, Melo would team with Mina Shirakawa to face off with Thekla and Athena in tag team action. While Melo would not win in her return match, she still came away feeling good about the experience in STARDOM.
While speaking to Renee Paquette on the Close-Up, Melo reflected on getting the chance to make her return to the ring with STARDOM, describing it as a ‘dream come true’.
“It was literally a dream come true. After I had a kid, I didn’t know if I would be able to come here ever, and having my match here with my baby, watching for the first time, I just feel like I’m in a dream. It’s literally a dream come true. I was already like freaking out to go there, and to go to Stardom, if you guys know me, you know I love Japanese style, right? So, like, I always wanted to go there. It was one of my main goals. Being able to do that after pregnancy was almost unbelievable.”
Renee would then note that Tay had ‘thrown herself in the deep end’ with the return, to which Melo agreed.
“Yes. It was literally so many dreams coming true in this trip. Like, my first match back, stepping in the ring with so many good names and (to) have fun and be able to do it. It was literally a dream. I was so emotional after I, like, I cried my life out. I was like, ‘I can do it, my God, I still can do it.’ I can’t believe it. But yeah, it was literally dreams, dreams and dreams, like just check, check, check. So I love it, can’t wait to go back.”
Melo would return to All Elite Wrestling in June of this year at Fyter Fest. You can read more about that here.
