​AEW Women’s World Champion “Timeless” Toni Storm has garnered significant attention for her captivating persona and in-ring prowess. Her recent interactions have sparked conversations, notably involving WWE Hall of Famer Wendi Richter.​In a candid appearance on the “Ring The Belle” podcast, Richter addressed Storm’s repeated call-outs. Unaware of Storm’s challenges initially, Richter humorously remarked, “I didn’t even know it. Someone said, ‘Are you gonna wrestle Toni Storm?’ I said, ‘Who’s that?’ I didn’t know who she was. You know what, I would wrestle Mike Tyson if they paid me enough. I’ll wrestle anybody.” ​Fightful News+1SI+1When probed about any formal communications with AEW or Storm, Richter revealed there had been none. She jestingly set her terms for a potential bout: “I challenge you, Toni. For $20 million. I’ll do it.” While acknowledging Storm’s talent, Richter advised, “She doesn’t need to drop the F-bomb all the time. It’s a family sport.” ​Amidst this lighthearted exchange, Storm’s focus remains on her upcoming title defense. She is set to face the formidable Megan Bayne at AEW Dynasty on April 6 in Philadelphia. The match was solidified following a series of confrontations, with Storm challenging Bayne after her victory over Kris Statlander on the March 19 episode of “AEW Dynamite.” ​Wrestlezone+1Cageside Seats+1As the wrestling world buzzes with anticipation, fans are eager to witness how Storm’s “Timeless” character will fare against the powerhouse Bayne.​
