AEW Star Mariah May Reportedly Nearing the End of Her Contract

by

It appears that the former AEW Women’s World Champion, Mariah May, who recently lost her title to Toni Storm, is close to wrapping up her existing agreement with the company. The captivating narrative between Mariah May and Toni Storm has been one of AEW’s most compelling storylines in recent memory.

This rivalry started over the summer when Mariah May deceived Toni Storm, culminating in a significant match at AEW All In. At that event, May emerged victorious against Storm to claim the AEW Women’s Championship. Following this, Storm took some time off but made her comeback in December on AEW Dynamite: Winter Is Here.

Instead of facing Mariah May straight away, Toni Storm adopted her rockstar character, feigning ignorance about wrestling in AEW. However, after winning a title match against May at AEW Grand Slam: Australia, Storm unveiled that she hadn’t let go of any details, demonstrating that her actions were all part of a well-thought-out plan.

At the AEW Grand Slam event in Australia, Storm triumphed over Mariah May to become the first-ever four-time Women’s World Champion. Following her loss of the title, May called for a rematch against Storm at AEW Revolution, but she was unable to regain the championship. Since then, May has been noticeably absent from television broadcasts.

Without Mariah May around, we’ve gotten some fresh news about her employment situation. The latest reports indicate that her contract will come to an end this very summer, leading many fans to wonder about what might be in store for her next.

Mariah May’s AEW contract reportedly set to expire this summer

Based on Fightful Select’s report (accessible with a subscription), there is a strong belief among AEW insiders that Mariah May’s contract will end this summer. While specifics about possible option years or extensions are still unknown, a source expressed surprise at the idea of May’s deal being short-term, considering the substantial recent promotion she has received.

With May’s increasing prominence and influence in the women’s main event, it appears All Elite Wrestling intends to keep her on board. There have been whispers about her contract situation even among insiders within the company.

With Mariah May’s contract nearing its summer end, it seems probable that Tony Khan will strive to renew her agreement. However, the scenario stays captivating, as she might consider alternative offers or negotiate with WWE. Ultimately, we’ll have to wait and see what her next step will be.
