All Elite Wrestling commentator Tony Schiavone recently discussed several professional wrestling topics on his podcast, “What Happened When,” including AEW Revolution becoming a tentpole PPV event of 2025.
Schiavone said, “Yeah, it has that potential. And I’m not -— you may have it in front of you, I cannot remember all the Revolutions we’ve done. I know the first one we did, that’s where we had Kenny Omega and Hangman against The Bucks. Yeah, that was right before the pandemic and that was by far the best tag team match I’d seen in AEW. So we’ve had great matches during Revolution.”
On the Toni Storm/Mariah May angle and how he believes Storm is one of the greatest women’s wrestlers ever:
“There’s a thought that it’s the best angle we’ve ever done. Yeah, we’ve certainly spent a lot of time and effort into it. And anytime you spend a lot of time and effort on something, you’re going to come out with something pretty good, normally. And we did. And of course, a lot of it is that Mariah has become such a tremendous heel, and Toni Storm is, if you ask me, one of the greatest women wrestlers I’ve ever been around. And I’m not talking only about her job as being ‘Timeless’ Toni Storm and the character, but her in-ring work. She’s great in the ring. So, yeah, it’s good stuff.”
