Mercedes Moné burst into the AEW scene with a splash at Big Business, heralding the commencement of a fresh chapter in her career. Despite facing considerable scrutiny, Moné swiftly ascended to the ranks of a major star within the company.
Since her debut in March, Mercedes Moné has etched a significant imprint on the landscape of AEW’s women’s division. Upon her arrival, she found herself entangled in a fierce rivalry with Willow Nightingale, the very opponent she clashed with in May 2023, a bout that almost ended her career.
Now, the former WWE Women’s Champion is poised to vie for Willow Nightingale’s TBS Championship at AEW Double or Nothing. Just days prior to her much-anticipated return to the ring after a year’s absence, Mercedes Moné extended her influence into the realm of acting by announcing her presence at the premiere of the acclaimed series, Star Wars: The Acolyte, donning an attire reminiscent of the iconic character, Princess Leia.
Mercedes graced the premiere, hosted by Disney, with a special screening held at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood, California. Furthermore, the event witnessed the attendance of the ensemble cast, including Amandla Stenberg, Lee Jung-Jae, Manny Jacinto, Dafne Keen, Charlie Barnett, and others. The highly anticipated series will debut on Disney+, with the initial two episodes premiering on Tuesday, June 4th, 2024, followed by weekly episodes thereafter.
“Whats up everybody, I am so excited, I am here at the premiere of Star Wars: The Acolyte, so come follow me with my IG Subscriptions.”
Meanwhile, amid the buzz surrounding Mercedes Moné’s entrance into AEW, fans eagerly anticipate whether she can dethrone Nightingale and clinch her inaugural championship in Tony Khan’s promotion at their most esteemed event.
