Mystery clues are beginning to surface around Toni Storm&#8217;s long-awaited comeback to AEW TV, shedding light on the quiet groundwork the company laid out during her extended time away.
Storm has been entirely absent since March, when she defeated Marina Shafir at Revolution before being quickly written off the road with a storyline attack angle.
AEW officials had big ideas mapped out for her, but they knew right after that match that she would be sidelined for the better part of the year. To keep her presence alive, creative planned an ongoing whodunit storyline with scattered breadcrumbs pointing to several suspects, leaving the true attacker&#8217;s identity flexible in case directions needed to pivot.
The first real tease of her return emerged at WrestleDream, where media members discovered planted cassette tapes linked to her character.
According to Fightful Select, while Storm&#8217;s return isn&#8217;t imminent, and she has stayed away from nearly every backstage taping, fans can expect new creative pieces to slowly unfold on TV before she officially laces up her boots again.

Ric Flair Gives An Update On His Eye Injury

WWE is reportedly set to form an official on-screen faction featuring Rusev, Ethan Page, and Big Cass in the near future.
According to SelfMadePW, the company plans to make the trio a formal group immediately upon Rusev’s return to TV.
Ethan Page and Big Cass have already begun teaming on RAW, recently defeating Intercontinental Champion Chad Gable and Dragon Lee. Rusev, who has been sidelined since a neck injury in late July, has returned to live events and previously teamed with Page earlier this year.
Original plans to reunite Rusev with Page were delayed by the injury, leading WWE to temporarily pair Page with Cass instead.
