AEW star set to miss scheduled appearance; reveals the reason

An AEW star has confirmed that she will miss a scheduled appearance. She has revealed the reason behind this decision.

Tay Melo has been absent from AEW TV since she announced her pregnancy at Double or Nothing 2023. Since then, she went on to give birth to a beautiful baby girl named Luna, but she remained absent from TV due to her maternal responsibilities. However, Melo made her return last week at Fyter Fest to save her friend Anna Jay from Megan Bayne and Penelope Ford.

Tay Melo was set to make a scheduled appearance at a fan meet. However, she has now taken to social media to let fans know that she will miss this event since her daughter, Luna, was having a fever. However, she confirmed that Sammy Guevara will still make it to the fan meet.

"Hey friends, I’m so sorry but I won’t be able to make it to today’s appearance. If you were there yesterday, you probably heard me saying Luna was having a fever and stayed home with grandma. She got worse and needs me home right now. Sammy will still be there, and I know he’ll bring the energy! Thanks for understanding," Tay posted.

According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker.
