5 things you didn't know about Toni Storm

#2 She spent most of her earlier years wrestling men

Taking down men? No problem!

When Storm began training at the age of 12, she joined a small wrestling company on the Gold Coast, and for the longest time she was the only girl in it, hence she spent most of her earlier years intergender wrestling. She claims she merely wrestled with 3 girls during a time span of over 2 years.

Women fighting men is uncommon in the WWE world of sports entertainment as well because of the image it projects. Ronda Rousey and Triple H's encounter in WrestleMania when Ronda lifted Triple H up on her shoulders has been a rare exception in modern times.

Storm proved her talent when she battled Timothy Thatcher. She claims the match was very hard and it took a lot out of her, however unlike her earlier training years when she wrestled with other men because of a lack of women wrestlers, now she doesn't need to because of the ample female talent that's present in the WWE.
