PWInsider is reporting that Jimmy Jacobs is present backstage at tonight’s Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling Forged In Excellence event.
This comes after Jimmy departed from AEW earlier this month. Regarding Jacobs’ presence, a source mentioned that he’s simply “being Jimmy.”
Former AEW Women’s World Champion Toni Storm debuted in CMLL last night at CMLL Viernes Espectacular, facing La Catalina.
La Catalina defeated Storm, who later delivered a promo targeting her opponent.
She said, “La Catalina! You were lucky this time because nobody nobody beats Timeless Toni Storm! You got lucky, but unlucky for you, I will be back very soon! I don’t know when, but you will soon find out! So get ready for the a*s-whooping of the ages! I hate you! I hate you, La Catalina! You and your bottom better watch out!”
¡Timeless llega a La Catedral de la Lucha Libre! Toni Storm está lista para su duelo.
