Many wrestling fans consider “Timeless” Toni Storm to be one of the best gimmicks currently in the business, with the New Zealander having transformed herself into a Golden Age of Hollywood starlet that lives in black and white. However, some fans have expressed their desire to see the reigning AEW Women’s World Champion return to WWE to face the likes of Tiffany Stratton and Becky Lynch. Yet there isn’t much likelihood of this, as during an appearance on The Sandman’s podcast, Storm has confirmed she’s an AEW lifer.
29-year-old Storm was previously employed by WWE between 2017 and 2021, and initially appeared to be on the verge of becoming a big star on the main roster. Still, she would end up frustrated when she was called up to SmackDown, apparently feeling underappreciated and disrespected by the company, leading her to fly herself home and request her release. Therefore, it seems unlikely that WWE would want her back, given the circumstances of her abrupt departure, which Storm appears to be fine with.
