In a recent interview with Lucha Libre Online, All Elite Wrestling superstar Tay Conti revealed that she is expecting to make her MMA debut very soon, noting that she will need final approval from AEW President Tony Khan, but that dates and a potential opponent have already been discussed.

“Yes, this is one of my goals that I want to achieve, I was never very good with my strikes and with my hands, with my kicks yes, but with my hands no. I have judo and jiu-jitsu that helps me a lot, I’m working my hands right now to try to be better. When I set out to do something, I have to do it well, otherwise I will not do it, that’s why I am training and I am determined.

I am training every day, I spoke about a date and a person and yes, I will be fighting in MMA very soon. I obviously have to talk to Tony [Khan] and talk to everyone prior to coming to an agreement, but it is one of my goals, I hope it happens very soon because I am working very hard for this. I will never say no to competition, I want to do it, I can do it.

If my boss calls me and says you can go, I will go, all I need is a word from my boss and I’ll be there. To wrestle Deonna Purrazzo for the IMPACT Knockouts Championship, I’d love to also go to AAA or anywhere, I love to wrestle, I love doing my job, learning, helping other people, having other people to help me and sharing together. Whatever they tell me to do, I will do it and I will be happy. I hope to be able to wrestle Deonna very soon too.”
