AEW star Tay Melo recently shared her struggle with training while being away from the ring for more than a year. Her most recent match in the Jacksonville-based promotion saw her team up with Anna Jay to compete against Ruby Soho and Willow Nightingale in a losing effort.
The 28-year-old star made her AEW debut in 2020 and has been a top star since then. She then joined forces with Jay and both performers later established themselves as a single competitor.
In mid-2022, Tay Melo, along with fellow AEW star and husband, Sammy Guevara, turned heel after joining the Jericho Appreciation Society and garnered a lot of heat. However, their storyline got scrapped as Melo went on a hiatus due to her pregnancy. Tay gave birth to a daughter in November 2023.

It’s a long way to go but I’m closer than yesterday," Tay Melo shared.
