After walking out of WWE nearly a year ago, the wrestling world went wild with speculation on where she would go next. Many fans began to clamor for her to throw her lot in with AEW, resulting in immediate speculation that she’d be Saraya’s mystery tag team partner.
According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, Tony Khan could be respecting New Japan Pro Wrestling, who has had her first match since leaving WWE booked for quite some time. Johnson speculates that in order to maintain their good relationship, Khan could be opting not to take away the hype and momentum NJPW has been building up around Moné.
While this is by no means the official announcement, it does propose an interesting reason behind Toni Storm being announced for the bout. Additionally, Britt Baker seemingly made a reference to Mercedes’ WWE character Sasha Banks during Dynamite, sending more fans into a speculative frenzy.
