Storm could not travel with the flowers, so she gave them to Ellering’s mother.

Both Toni Storm and Rachael Ellering are with AEW/ROH. There was a period of time when both were signed to WWE and in 2018, Ellering and Storm partook in the second Mae Young Classic tournament.

Ellering lost in the first round to Hiroyo Matsumoto while Storm went on to best IYO SKY in the tournament final at WWE’s Evolution pay-per-view.

A story about the tournament final was shared by Ellering as she was doing a virtual signing for Captain’s Corner. She shared that after Storm won, she was not able to travel with all of the flowers she received so she gave the flowers to Ellering’s mother.

The year Toni Storm won (the Mae Young Classic tournament), she couldn’t fly home with all her big flowers that she got for winning and so at the end of the night, she gave all the flowers to my mom, and oh, that’s just one of my favorite things when I think about it…

On the Storm front, she is gearing up to challenge Mariah May for the AEW Women’s World Championship at Grand Slam Australia in February.

Ellering dove into her time as a member of the Ring of Honor roster and to read her comments, click here.
