Mercedes Mone Wants To Make History In AEW Dream Match

Mercedes Mone has named her top five fantasy match-ups.

Despite having plenty of years left at the top, Mercedes Mone has already tangled with many of the greats of the modern era. From her time in WWE to adventures in Japan and elsewhere, the star has fought and beaten the best.

But that doesn’t mean she’s been able to get all of her wrestling wishes.

Writing in the latest edition of her Mone Mag, the TBS Champion discussed her top five fantasy matches with stars of the past and present. After listing matches with Manami Toyota, Kyoko Inoue, Trish Stratus, and Mickie James, Mone pointed to one match that could actually be a possibility.

Mone then suggested that a match with ROH Women’s Champion Athena would be one of the greatest matches of all time. Athena, who recently became the longest-reigning ROH Champion in history, won the Women’s Title back in December 2022.

Athena- They say fantasies can’t come true, only dreams can. On that note, a dream match would be against Athena- the Ring of Honor Women’s champion. I’ve only had two matches with her, but they have been multi-women matches. I think she’s an incredible talent.

Like the others, I’ve never seen women do things that she’s done before. She also seems to love it just as much as I do. I think if I’m given the chance and opportunity, we would have one of the greatest matches ever.

Jim Ross Wants To See More From Mercedes Mone

Despite the star holding the TBS Title and the NJPW Strong Women’s Title, Jim Ross said he’s expecting more from Mercedes Mone. However, the legendary announcer denied that his comments were a criticism of Mone.

Ross explained that he’s yet to see Mone be given a story she can really sink her teeth into, and as such is yet to hit the heights he expected in AEW.

The star was most recently in action on the October 16th episode of Dynamite where she defeated Queen Aminata.
