#TimelessToniStorm

1 post1 participant0 posts today

A huge thing I've been appreciating about AEW as of late is the sapphic energy between "Timeless" Toni Storm and Mariah May. It's been a huge moment of fresh air whenever the get screen time, and the more it goes on, the tension gets even stronger. "Forbidden Door" (AEW's crossover show with Japanese wrestling promotions NJPW and Stardom) last Sunday was where it was at it's peak with Storm's match against Mina Shirakawa from Stardom, started as this kind of implied love triangle thing over Mariah and then concluded with Storm retaining her title, and then ended in the ring with the three of them making peace with each other and sharing a three way kiss inside of the ring. Not a turn you see very often, but I'm glad it exists. Great note to end Pride month on!

I think if anyone ever had reservations about getting into wrestling cause of the stigma that wrestling is full of queer/transphobic male fans, I'd point them to here just because over the course of it's five year existence, by the standards of the accessibile wrestling shows, AEW has already had more moments of positive rep for our community than WWE does (despite the fact that the latter company has seen mass improvement throughout the first six month of the year). Indies has a plethora of queer rep I could point to as well, but that's a whole other conversation.
