Tay Melo responds to rumors of AEW introducing Women’s Tag Team titles

Tay Melo is hoping to see AEW introduce Women’s Tag Team titles at some point in the near future.

Having Women’s Tag Team titles in AEW has been a goal of Tony Khan’s for a while. Last week, BodySlam.net reported that AEW had the title belts made about a year ago — but they’ve been on the shelf waiting to be introduced.

Khan said in May that he believes there are “a number of great tandems” in the AEW women’s division. Another team has since been added to that list with Melo making her return last month and reuniting with Anna Jay. Melo had been away from the AEW ring since she and Sammy Guevara welcomed their daughter Luna into the world in 2023.

While speaking with Denise Salcedo at AnimeVerse Fest this past weekend, Melo spoke about how happy she is to be back in AEW. She’s been paying attention to the Women’s Tag Team title rumors and would love to go after the belts with Jay if they are introduced.

“I’m definitely happy to be back with Anna. Looking forward for what’s going to happen in AEW with me. I don’t know much, but I’m so happy,” Melo said. “I have been reading about the titles, the tag titles, so maybe it’s in the future — who knows? TayJay is here and we’re waiting for it. We have been working together since day one. So it’s a dream for us. If it happens, we’re here and we’re coming for it.”

Melo said that, right now, her goal is to keep proving herself and prove that she can wrestle at a top level.

“I feel like right now, I want to get in the ring. I want to get reps. I want to put myself out there. I want to prove to myself and to people that I can still do it — that I can wrestle in this top level,” Melo said.

“Because that’s what AEW is right now. You know, everybody’s wrestling like in a crazy level. It’s so high, the bar is so high. I just want to keep proving myself right now. I want to [have] great matches. I want to do street fights. I want to wrestle everybody. We have Thekla now too. I didn’t wrestle Toni Storm yet. So, like, there’s so much to do. So much — and I want it all. I just want it all.”
