Toni Storm out of action for ‘a long time’ - Lemmy.zip

>Former AEW Women’s World Champion Toni Storm will be out of action for “a long time” due to an undisclosed injury or injuries. > >That news comes from our Bryan Alvarez who added that is the reason Mina Shirakawa filled in for Storm and then defeated Marina Shafir on last night’s AEW Dynamite. > >Storm last wrestled at this past Sunday’s Revolution, defeating Shafir in a hard-hitting match that was followed by Ronda Rousey making a surprise appearance to confront Storm. Storm was then hit by Shafir as Storm and Rousey were being separated. > >Prior to Dynamite, AEW released a clip of Storm being found bloodied up in her locker room with Shirakawa and Luther attending to her. She was set to face Shafir in a no holds barred match on last night’s show but was deemed unable to compete and Shirakawa took the spot instead. > >The extent of the injuries and/or timeline for her return is unknown as is whether Shirakawa is being slotted into whatever creative was planned for Storm in the near future. Hopefully it’s nothing too bad and she can be back in the ring soon.

SRS on bsky said she will be out for all of 2026. There are approx. 9 months left in the year. If the math checks out…
I can’t believe she got Juice pregnant. (Shamelessly stolen from a friend)

That sucks. I hope she recovers quickly and can grace us once again with her timeless presence soon. 

On the plus size, this spares us the Toni/Mina vs Shafir/Rousey match that seemed to be their plan. 

Legit thought that was Taylor Swift
