Mariah May, a former AEW Women’s World Champion, has amplified discussions about her career trajectory by posting a cryptic video clip on the social media platform X/Twitter. This activity comes at a time when there is ongoing speculation regarding a potential move to WWE for the wrestler, who is currently in her contract year with AEW, although the precise timing of her potential free agency remains unclear.
The shared clip featured one of May’s entrances as the AEW Women’s World Champion from the “Winter is Coming” AEW event in December. That night, she defended her title against her former tag team partner, Mina Shirakawa, an event which also saw the surprising return of Toni Storm.
This social media post from Mariah May occurs while she has been absent from AEW programming for over two months, her last appearance being in the “Hollywood Ending match” against Toni Storm at the AEW Revolution event.
In a development involving figures from May’s throwback clip, Mina Shirakawa recently secured a championship opportunity. A few days prior, on an episode of AEW Dynamite, Shirakawa, in her first match as an official AEW roster member, pinned Toni Storm in an eliminator match, thereby earning a title shot for AEW Double or Nothing.
