Toni Storm may not longer be the AEW Women’s World Champion but that doesn’t mean the Timeless one isn’t still searching for gold.
Sitting by a fireplace, Storm states she will always have respect for Japanese wrestling. In 2017 she became the World of STARDOM Champion and she is now ready to prove that winning a title in Japan wasn’t a mistake. On September 24, 2017 in Nagoya, Mayu Iwatani faced Toni Storm in a World of STARDOM Championship match and lost due to an injury two minutes into the match.
Storm has now challenged Iwatani for the IWGP Women’s Title on Oct. 5 in Nagoya.
Iwatani has held the championship since she defeated Mercedes Moné in April 2023. She has held the belt for over 500 days. There has only been six defenses during this time.
