Storm's "Timeless" gimmick is critically acclaimed. She has fans worldwide and many consider her the best women's wrestler of her generation. Interestingly, in a recent interview with Scott Fisherman of TVInsider.com, the Australian star revealed a shocking truth about her character.

AEW personality RJ City is often credited for creating and developing "Timeless" Toni Storm. However, according to the 29-year-old, the on-screen interviewer does nothing. She called City a fall guy and was even unsure if he worked in the company.

"There is a misconception as well that RJ City…I don’t know if you’ve heard of him. Probably not, but there is this misconception that he is the brain behind this whole thing. I must put the rumors to rest. He does absolutely nothing. I think they just keep him around so if something goes wrong, we have someone to blame. He is more of a fall guy. He may be an intern. I’m not sure if he works there." said Storm. [H/T: No DQ]

Toni Storm never wants to leave AEW

Former WWE star Toni Storm joined All Elite Wrestling in 2022. Tony Khan turned her into a massive star, and the Australian native seemingly wants to spend her entire career in the Jacksonville-based company.

In a recent interview episode of the Sandman podcast, the 29-year-old revealed that she is an AEW-lifer.

"When I'm done wrestling, you'll never see me again..There's no encore. This (run) is it. I'm not doing anything else. Where would I go, what would I do? Because I'm on a long deal for AEW. I've signed my life to AEW. I'm on a five-year deal... but I'm a lifer for AEW," said Storm

Only time will tell what the future holds for the Timeless star. Hopefully, she will rejoin WWE eventually.
