A top prospect has gained the attention of major wrestling companies.

Fightful Select has learned that there has been discussion within All Elite Wrestling about potentially working with Mariah May. The 25-year old UK-born wrestler has been working for about four and a half years, and developed a large following.

Back in 2019, WWE has a WWE UK Performance Center Tryout. The company had reached out to her almost immediately after her wrestling career started. We’ve been told that WWE has kept an eye on her ever since then as well, but that AEW has been the company picking up steam as a potential landing point.

We’ve not been told if May and AEW or WWE have had active conversations or negotiations. She’s currently in Japan, where she’s been working a heavy schedule with Stardom, including a recent singles match with Giulia that many considered the best of Mariah’s run with the company. There has been speculation over the last week that she may be finishing up in Japan and be signed somewhere after she shut down her Big Cartel store, and posted a tweet saying “I will never forget this time of my life. Thankful” while remembering some of her matches in Japan. The day prior, she and Mina Shirakawa dropped the Goddess of Stardom titles to the Cosmic Angels.

We have not confirmed that May signed with AEW, but there certainly is traction to her going there.
