Toni Storm, a New Zealand-Australian professional wrestler signed to All Elite Wrestling, recently made headlines with her powerful performance in defeating the undefeated Mercedes Moné.

On July 12, 2026, at AEW All In: Texas, Toni Storm successfully defended the AEW Women’s World Championship against Mercedes Moné.

“So proud of my little sis @tonistorm_ tonight. Great match and well earned. @aew #allin #wrestling.”

One wrote, “Didn’t realize she was your sister! Nice!,” Another added, “lol that’s even their real names.“
