James Storm isn’t just dealing with wild wrestling angles—he’s dodging stalkers disguised as superfans.
During his conversation with Chris Van Vliet, the TNA veteran revealed that a fan once gave him a pair of underwear with a hidden Apple AirTag sewn inside. The woman even asked him to put them on during an autograph signing. Storm declined, but things took a weird turn after the event.
“I had this one wrestling fan who made me a pair of underwear… and it was really crazy because she was like, ‘Will you put them on?’ I was like, ‘Well, not now, ’cause I’m doing an autograph signing.’ So I just threw them to the side.”
Thankfully, someone nearby sensed something was off.
“At the end of the autograph signing, the security guard goes, ‘Hey man, let me see those underwear.’ So I picked them up—and thank God he asked me—because I was like, ‘What is that?’ It had a piece of Velcro on them, and I open it up, and it was an Apple AirTag tracking device in it. And I was like, ‘Nope. Oh my goodness.’”
That stunt wasn’t just creepy—it was straight-up terrifying. James Storm might be a tough guy in the ring, but no one signs up to be stalked with high-tech underwear. Wrestling fans can be passionate, but there’s a line—and this one flew right past it.
