AEW star Harley Cameron recently sent a message to Toni Storm
AEW star Harley Cameron is set to team up with Saraya to face Women's World Champion Toni Storm and Mariah May on next week's Dynamite.
In an exclusive video on AEW's X/Twitter account, Harley Cameron sent a message to her opponents and addressed Storm undressing herself on last Saturday's Collision.
"Toni Storm, you know when you came out and undressed, you know what I was thinking? I thought that was disgusting, repugnant, just despicable, and you know what I gagged, which is new to me. But you know who was more repulsed? Saraya. So we've decided that on Dynamite, we're gonna do a match, a tag match, a tag team match. Saraya, Harley Cameron against Toni Storm and Tiny Storm. And since you like being such an exhibitionist, we're gonna expose you for the fraud that you are. So we'll see you next Wednesday." [0:01 - 0:52]
Storm is set to defend her AEW Women's World Championship against Serena Deeb at the Double or Nothing pay-per-view on May 26. It will be interesting to see whether Harley Cameron or Saraya will play a role in the bout's outcome.
Sportskeeda extends its condolences to John Klinger's family and friends at this challenging time.
