Mariah May has turned into Toni Storm from a few years ago, and one of the best things about her rebrand is that 'Timeless' Toni is no-selling it like everything's completely normal. Why are fans so impressed? Our Mariah has always been Storm circa 2019, no? No, but it's a lot of fun.

AEW will get to Mariah vs. Toni (the real one) eventually. For now, they should continue making May seem vital to Storm's cause by having her help 'Timeless' hold onto the Women's Title vs. Thunder Rosa. The babyface's fanbase will just have to suck that up, 'cause she's the bridesmaid of this division whilst Toni is rocking her current gimmick.

Everyone is, being honest. That includes recent arrival Mercedes Mone.

Tony Khan could get away with spinning the Mariah May story out until Double Or Nothing, then turning his attention to Mone challenging Toni for the gold over the summer. All In London would be a fine place to crown Mone, for example. Just a thought.
