During a recent interview with AEW Unrestricted, Luther, who adds to “Timeless” Toni Storm’s character the way Paul Bearer did with The Undertaker, has discussed what makes her so special. In this, he explains that while many performers excel with their gimmicks, they revert to normalcy during matches. In contrast, Storm fully embodies her character at all times, making her gimmick immersive.
“A lot of people do really well with their gimmicks, but sometimes when they wrestle, they’ll be kind of out of it … She lives it. That’s her. 100%.” – Luther
Former deatmatch wrestler Luther began serving as Storm’s devoted butler in October 2023, aligning perfectly with her Golden Age Hollywood starlet persona. This partnership elevated Storm’s character, helping her become a record four-time AEW Women’s World Champion with extended reigns. What makes their partnership work so well is that Luther prioritizes her spotlight over his, while also helping drive storylines and interfering in matches.
