Blockbuster announcement regarding AEW star Mercedes Mone

Mercedes Mone has been basking in her glory as the AEW TBS Champion as of late. She is on a generational quest to collect belts in professional wrestling, and currently, she holds nine titles in all of wrestling. Now she is set to compete for another championship, as per a recent announcement.

The CEO has captured the championship by competing in promotions like RevPro, EWA, NJPW, and CMLL. Apart from that, she has been the AEW TBS Champion for almost 500 days. A few weeks ago, Mone revealed that her goal is to surpass Ultimo Dragon's legacy from 1996, where he captured ten different titles in pro-wrestling. It seems like the former WWE star is closer than ever to fulfilling her dream.

In a recent X post of the Winnipeg Pro Wrestling, it was announced that Mercedes Mone will challenge Jody Threat for the WPW Women's Championship at Rumble in the Burt event. The show is set to take place at the Burton Cummings Theatre on Sunday, October 19.
