Potential AEW Plans For Mercedes Mone

The reigning TBS Champion Mercedes Mone kicked off her feud with the ROH Women’s World Champion Athena on last night’s episode of AEW Collision, with both women also declaring their respective intentions to win the 2025 women’s Owen Hart Cup Tournament to earn a shot at the AEW Women’s World Championship at All In: Texas 2025. Athena emerged to confront Mone after the AEW star defeated Robyn Renegade in a singles match. 

Mone’s match with Renegade may not just be a throwaway bout on Collision, as there may be more than meets the eye to their interactions on television. According to a report from Fightful Select, there has been a “pitched integration” involving the TBS Champion Mercedes Mone and Robyn & Charlotte Renegade of the Renegade Twins tag team. It is noted that this has been a long time coming from those within the company, with it being pitched some time ago. 

When Athena and Mone got into it on Collision last night, Mone pulled Renegade in harm’s way, allowing her to bail from the ring. Mone also showed respect to her opponent after their match, declaring that Renegade has way more heart than Billie Starkz. This, along with the report, indicates that plans may be moving ahead on making some sort of partnership a reality.
