There were two occasions that Kanellis wanted to bring in Mariah May.
Signed By Superstars conducted a virtual signing with Maria Kanellis. As the signing went along, Kanellis was asked for her thoughts about Mariah May and AEW Women's World Champion 'Timeless' Toni Storm.
Kanellis praised both talents and then shared that while she was working with Bobby Cruise on the rollout of the Ring of Honor women's division, she tried to bring Mariah into the promotion.
"They’re both so incredibly talented (Kanellis said about Toni Storm & Mariah May). So talented… I tried to bring Mariah May in for Women’s Wrestling Army. It was just too hard. We tried to bring her in for Ring of Honor too but, at the time, she wasn’t full-time in the States so, you couldn’t bring anybody in. But, yeah, I think they’re both so talented. Some of the most talented people in the industry."
Coming up at AEW Double or Nothing, Storm is going to be defending her Women's World Championship against Mina Shirakawa.
