‘Elite’ wrestling star quits WWE rivals days before Money In The Bank
She seems to be on the move.
WWE are honing in on a major free agent who appears to have quit rivals All Elite Wrestling.
Former AEW Women’s World Champion Mariah May has been removed from the company’s online roster page amid reports she is jumping ship to the sports entertainment giant.
The 26-year-old English wrestler, who built her reputation in Japan before reaching new heights in Tony Khan’s promotion, seems to be on the move.
Usually, a wrestler’s removal from the AEW website suggests they’re leaving, as fans have seen in recent months with the likes of Aleister Black, Penta, Rey Fenix, Rusev and more.
Now, Mariah appears to be the next name, as PWInsider cited WWE sources who expected her to ‘start there in the near future’.
According to Fightful, management for Mariah – who hasn’t appeared since losing her Hollywood Ending match to Toni Storm in March – claim she is still under contract.

While it’s not clear exactly when she becomes a free agent, it’s hard to imagine WWE wasting any time putting pen to paper and bringing her on board.
Money In the Bank is just days away on June 7, but it could be that her big moment is saved for WWE’s all-women’s PLE Evolution on July 13, one night after AEW All In.
