5 things you didn't know about AEW star Tay Conti: Friends with FC Barcelona star, first female Brazilian to compete at WrestleMania

#1. AEW star Tay Conti wants to compete in Japan

AEW star Tay Conti is a huge fan of Japanese wrestling. In a recent appearance on The Elite POV podcast, she revealed she's a huge fan of the Japanese wrestling style, and how one of her biggest goals for the next year is to wrestle in the country if AEW allows her to:

"I started watching Japanese matches. Maybe because of Judo too, I made the whole connection in my mind, I fell in love. I love the Japanese style, it’s like my favorite style ever. I don’t know, I really want to go to Japan, of course, I hope next year I can do it, it’s one of my biggest goals for sure. I want to go there and learn, and get hit in the face, and hit people in the face."

Tay has competed with Japanese wrestlers in AEW, but it'd be interesting to see her make appearances in female Japanese promotions such as Stardom. With her MMA background, the AEW wrestler might be a good fit for the Japanese strong style.
