We hear from Timeless Toni Storm
"Timeless" Toni Storm is disappointed in Mercedes. "You said we'd have the biggest women's match of all time, you've been eating steak, playing on your phone, and trying to kiss me. You are still in Mexico because you have won yet another title. Is that all I am to you? Is that all this is to you? Another trophy for your shelf? Another toy for your collection? Now I want to say this as nicely as possible. Mercedes, I am not some other m***********, I am "Timeless" Toni Storm! I am the AEW Women's World Champion. And if you make one false move, I am going to eat you alive. I demand your best, Mercedes because that is what you are. One day, my reign will be over and there's nobody more deserving than you. The day I met you, I knew what you were destined to be. You are the first woman to wrestle at Madison Square Garden, the Tokyo Dome, Wembley Stadium, and Arena Mexico. But I, well I was the last woman to wrestle at Wodonga Sports & Leisure Center before it closed down for a cockroach infestation. I sincerely believe you are the Greatest of all Time. I am not, nor was I ever meant to be. I am a manic, neurotic, erotic, sexually questionable, consistently sweaty, bottom heavy, Transatlantic w****. And when this belt is in my bosom, I make magic happen. So unless you plan on pulling a rabbit from you a**, I highly doubt you can say the same. So at ALL IN, in front of the entire world and that little girl watching from home, you will look me in the eye and you will realize that I am going to have to beat you and you're going to have to kill me!"
