It's been announced that former NXT Superstar Taynara (now known as Tay) Conti has officially signed on as a member of the All Elite Wrestling roster.
Conti made her AEW debut as Ariane Andrew's (WWE's Cameron) partner in the recent Women's Tag Team Tournament, and while they didn't make much of an impact, Tay clearly impressed the right people.
Conti was used quite a bit on NXT TV but never received any kind of push. The Brazilian martial arts expert seemed very capable in the ring, but there were rumors that her lack of English and backstage attitude may have held her back. Conti reportedly asked for her release in late 2019, but was only let go earlier this year as part of WWE's company-wide talent purge.
How she'll be utilised in AEW obviously remains to be seen, but there's no denying that the company's women's division could do with a serious boost of talent!
