Toni Storm just flipped the script on Mariah May in the most dramatic way possible. After months of tension, Storm finally got her shot at redemption in front of her home crowd at AEW Grand Slam: Australia—and she didn’t waste it.
The AEW Women’s Championship was on the line as May defended her title against a fired-up Storm, who made it clear this match wasn’t just about gold—it was personal. From the opening bell, both women went all out, trading near falls and signature moves in a fight that had the Brisbane crowd on the edge of their seats.
May nearly put Storm away with her own version of Storm Zero, but the former champ powered through. As May tried to finish things with Mayday, Storm countered, turned the tables, and delivered a devastating Storm Zero to seal the deal. Just like that, Storm became a three-time AEW Women’s Champion, sending the crowd into a frenzy.
As Storm basked in the victory, chants of “You deserve it” echoed throughout the arena, while May sat outside the ring, visibly devastated. Storm, ever the showwoman, soaked in the moment, playing to the Australian fans who had been behind her from the start.
