Mariah May opens up about AEW management stopping her from kissing stars
AEW star Mariah May recently addressed her intimate scenes with Mina Shirakawa and Toni Storm on All Elite Wrestling Television. Shirakawa and Storm previously battled to have May as their apprentice.
In a recent chat on Wrestling with Frieddie podcast, the Glamour revealed that the management told her to stop kissing on TV as it was setting the women's wrestling back:
“It was not pitched. We just did it. Mina and I are extremely close. We’ve always been very close in Stardom. We just did it. The next time around, they were like, ‘Hey, can you guys stop kissing?' Oh my God. This is setting women’s wrestling back so much.’ It’s like, first of all, no one made us do it. We chose to do it... Like I said, if I don’t want to do something, I won’t.” [H/T SEScoops]
Mariah May has quickly became one of the fastest rising stars in All Elite Wrestling. It will be interesting to see if she captures the Women's Title at All In.
