AEW saw several new champions crowned at All In at Wembley Stadium. One of the most anticipated matches of the night saw Mariah May win the AEW Women’s Title over Toni Storm. This week, during the August 28 edition of Dynamite, May had a chance to address fans as champion.
Mariah May exuded confidence following her victory at All In, even delivering a eulogy for “Timeless” Toni Storm, which became a standout moment during the post-event press conference. Riding high on that momentum, she brought her bold demeanor to Champaign, Illinois, for this week’s show.
AEW Women’s World Champion Mariah May’s championship celebration was highly anticipated. She had promised something epic, but when the time came, she shocked everyone by announcing that the celebration was postponed. “I’m not doing it in this town. I know it’s called Champaign, but it should be changed to flat, stale, piss warm beer,” she declared, drawing a negative reaction from the crowd.
Undeterred by the chilly reception, Mariah May continued, stating that what the town needed was some glamour, and that’s exactly what she embodies. With a dramatic flourish, she teased the audience by announcing she would show them what she meant. She then removed her robe to reveal black lingerie paired with the AEW Women’s World Title.
As we look ahead, it’s clear that Mariah May has garnered significant heat and isn’t afraid to stir the pot. Her sharp tongue and commanding presence make her a formidable champion, though it’s still unclear who will challenge her at All Out on September 7. One thing is certain: Mariah May is a force to be reckoned with, and her next move will be one to watch.
