PWInsider reports that former WWE Superstar and ECW Original Dawn Marie was in attendance at tonight’s AEW Full Gear 2025 event. The 55-year-old wrestler was reportedly in attendance at the event, visiting along with her family.
She wrote on attending the event on social media (see below), “Thank You @AEW @MercedesVarnado @TheScottGarland @TonyKhan for making our first live event so special. #motherdaughter night out!”
Dawn Marie was formerly the valet of Lance Storm in ECW. She later signed with WWE, becoming part of a notable angle involving Torrie Wilson and her father, Al Wilson.
She was released from WWE in 2005 while she was away on maternity leave. Marie later filed a legal complaint against WWE for wrongful termination while she was pregnant in 2006. The matter with WWE was reportedly settled later in 2007.
She did end up making a WWE appearance last year at NXT TV which took place at the 2300 Arena, formerly the ECW Arena, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. During The CW-broadcast event, Dawn Marie served as the special guest referee in a Hardcore Match between Lola Vice and Jaida Parker. Tonight’s AEW Full Gear 2025 event was held at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey. It was broadcast live on pay-per-view.
Dawn Marie hails from Rahway, New Jersey, so that likely explains her attendance at tonight’s AEW pay-per-view event.
