'Elite' wrestling star quits WWE rivals days before Money In The Bank
WWE are honing in on a major free agent who appears to have quit rivals All Elite Wrestling. Former AEW Women's World Champion Mariah May has been removed from the company's online roster page amid reports she is jumping ship to the sports entertainment giant. The 26-year-old English wrestler, who built her reputation in Japan before reaching new heights in Tony Khan's promotion, seems to be on the move. Usually, a wrestler's removal from the AEW website suggests they're leaving, as fans have seen in recent months with the likes of Aleister Black, Penta, Rey Fenix, Rusev and more. Now, Mariah appears to be the next name, as PWInsider cited WWE sources who expected her to 'start there in the near future'. According to Fightful, management for Mariah – who hasn't appeared since losing her Hollywood Ending match to Toni Storm in March – claim she is still under contract. It's believed to be simply a matter of time before her two-year deal with AEW expires and she signs with WWE. While it's not clear exactly when she becomes a free agent, it's hard to imagine WWE wasting any time putting pen to paper and bringing her on board. Money In the Bank is just days away on June 7, but it could be that her big moment is saved for WWE's all-women's PLE Evolution on July 13, one night after AEW All In.

London-born Mariah made her in-ring debut in February 2019, before having an unsuccessful try out with WWE a few months later. After the pandemic, she made the jump to Japan with Stardom in 2022, where she crossed paths with Mina Shirakawa, and continued to develop her skills. The following year, she signed with AEW and debuted as a 'super fan' of then-world champion Toni Storm. Their two-year story arch – which was inspired by Hollywood classic All About Eve – saw her go from protege to rival in one of modern wrestling's best feuds, including a match at Wembley Stadium. 'The reason I chose AEW was because of this story,' Mariah exclusively told Metro in London last summer. 'I didn't know that I would take it to the lengths I did, I never knew how far it would go. But to be a part of a storyline is always enticing – that's why I got into wrestling.' Meanwhile, fans are excited to see Mariah get to do her thing in WWE after her incredible body of work in AEW. More Trending 'Mariah May is one of AEW's best success stories. A unique debut, layered character, and an all-time memorable feud,' broadcaster Jon Alba said on X. 'She will thrive in WWE. I suspect it won't take long for her to become a top star.' Fan @ChandranTheMan agreed: 'Mariah May is only 26 and already checks every box. Elite facial expressions, a 5-star match under her belt, strong storytelling skills, and a standout look. She's a total star in the making.'

AEW Star Mariah May Reportedly Nearing the End of Her Contract
Former AEW Women's World Champion Mariah May, who lost her title to Toni Storm, is reportedly nearing the end of her current contract. Mariah May and Toni Storm delivered one of AEW's most compelling storylines in recent history. This rivalry began last summer when Mariah May betrayed Toni Storm, leading to a high-stakes match at AEW All In. At the show, May defeated Storm to capture the AEW Women's Championship. Shortly after, Storm took a hiatus but returned in December on AEW Dynamite: Winter Is Coming. Instead of confronting Mariah May immediately, Toni Storm revived her rockstar persona, pretending she had never wrestled in AEW before. After earning a title shot against May at AEW Grand Slam: Australia, Storm revealed that she hadn't forgotten anything, proving her actions were all part of a long-term strategy. At AEW Grand Slam: Australia, Storm defeated Mariah May to become the first-ever four-time Women's World Champion. After losing the title, May challenged Storm to a rematch at AEW Revolution but failed to reclaim the championship. Since then, May has remained absent from television. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Mariah May (@mariahmayx) Amid her absence, recent reports have provided an update on Mariah May's contract status, revealing that it is set to expire this upcoming summer, leaving fans speculating about her future. According to Fightful Select (behind a paywall), many backstage within AEW believe that Mariah May's contract will expire this summer. Although details about potential option years or extensions remain unclear, a source revealed they would be shocked if May's deal was short-term, given the significant recent push the promotion has given her. With May's rise in the women's main event scene and her growing status, reports indicate that AEW aims to retain her. Word of her contract status has also circulated internally within the promotion. As Mariah May's contract approaches its summer expiration, Tony Khan will likely make an effort to re-sign her. The situation remains intriguing, as she may explore other opportunities or pursue a potential deal with WWE. Only time will reveal her next move.

Saraya's Shocking Revelation: AEW Star Says Wrestling Career Is Nearing Its End
Former AEW Women's World Champion Saraya, a former WWE Superstar, has announced that she is nearing the end of her wrestling career. Saraya revived her career after retiring from WWE in 2018. Saraya, formerly known as Paige in WWE, suffered a career-threatening injury in 2017. During a WWE live event, Mercedes Mone delivered a backkick to her during their match, which caused her neck injury and forced her to retire in 2018. Determined to return, Saraya worked hard on her rehabilitation. After her WWE contract expired in 2022, she signed with AEW and made her in-ring return at AEW Full Gear, defeating Britt Baker. Since then, she has established herself as a top star in AEW's women's division. In 2023, at AEW All In at Wembley Stadium in London, Saraya won the AEW Women's World Championship in her home country. While she had a short reign as champion, she has suffered multiple losses in AEW over the past few years. Since October 8, Saraya has been absent from AEW television after losing to Willow Nightingale in a match that also featured Jamie Hayter and Nyla Rose, fueling speculation about a possible injury. However, she dismissed the rumors, confirming that she was not injured. Amid this development, she recently made a shocking revelation her wrestling career is nearing its end. In an interview with Sports Illustrated, Saraya discussed her wrestling future and revealed that her in-ring career is approaching its final chapter. Reflecting on her recent string of losses in AEW, she explained that her focus has been on elevating new stars. She stated, 'I'm letting people beat me, left, right and center. I was on a losing streak, but I just wanted people to get their rub. I want to uplift everybody. I'm not gonna be in wrestling forever. I'm coming to the end of it and it's very soon. And I don't wanna go out being like, I need to be on top.' Saraya has been absent from AEW for over five months, while Toni Storm currently holds the AEW Women's Championship. With her career nearing its end, will she make a comeback to chase the title one last time and have a final run as champion? Only time will tell.
