‘Timeless’ Toni Storm is one of the most decorated wrestlers in All Elite Wrestling, becoming a multi time AEW Women’s World Champion since debuting in the company in March of 2022. She has fit in so well in AEW in fact that she believes herself to be an AEW lifer.
While speaking to The Sandman Podcast in a new interview, Toni spoke on what she’ll be doing in wrestling once she retires from in the ring.
“When I’m done wrestling, you’ll never see me again. You’ll never see me in any other capacity, or in any other company, for that matter. Exclusive. I will vanish with that. and there’s no, like, encore. This is it. I’m not doing anything else. Like, where would I go? What would I do? Because I’m on a long deal for AEW, like I’m signed my life to AEW. I’m on a five-year deal, and I can’t remember how long. But I’m a lifer for AEW. There’s no like, ‘oh, well, we’ll see what happens.’ That does happen a lot in wrestling, though, yes. Random crazy shit happens. But as of now, AEW for life.”
When it was mentioned that she would prefer not to go back to WWE, Toni noted that it was no offense to the company, she just doesn’t fit in with their ‘whole shtick’.
“That’s no offense to them. I think they’re great, and I understand them for exactly what they are. They’re a machine. They’re a business. And I just don’t fit in with their whole shtick, and that’s cool. It’s like, I love it. I love a lot of the people that work there and it’s like, yes, get that money. Get that power. But, I mean, realistically, in my life, like, that’s it. I’m not going to like, how old can I do this? How long can I do this? I don’t know.”
In a recent interview, Bryan Danielson noted that he believes Toni Storm could take on and defeat a bear in a wrestling match. You can read more about that here.
