According to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful.com, WWE SmackDown Superstar Toni Storm has been released by WWE.
The report mentions that sources within the company believe that the former NXT UK Women's Champion requested her release. The familiar reason of budget cuts was not listed as the reason for her departure.
Toni Storm made her main roster debut on an episode of SmackDown in July where she defeated current Queen of the Ring, Zelina Vega. She competed in the 2018 Mae Young Classic tournament, which she won.
Toni Storm recently collided with Charlotte Flair for the SmackDown Women's Championship
On the Christmas Eve edition of WWE SmackDown, Charlotte Flair and Toni Storm went one-on-one for the SmackDown Women's Title.
