Toni Storm has tons of experience in wrestling before joining the WWE. She has performed in more than a dozen countries while being just a teenager. Starting at a tender age, her dream was to reach the WWE, one day and now she’s enjoying her dream to the fullest. Currently, WWE assigned her to the Smackdown roster.
Toni Storm had an interesting journey in the WWE. She first debuted through the 2017 Mae Young Classic and went on to become a former NXT UK Women’s Champion. She’s been on the older version of the NXT who had a failed quest of gaining the NXT Women’s championship. During that timespan, the Australian superstar also had to deal with some mental health issues.

“I didn’t really know what to do. I just fluffed around. I don’t want to talk about it in case it doesn’t happen. I didn’t really say much. I didn’t get my hopes up or anything, this is like the ultimate goal, my life dream, so hearing about it, I’ll believe it when I see it. Then I turned up to work next week and it really was happening.” (quotes courtesy Wrestling INC)
