At WrestleDream 2025, The CEO captured the Interim ROH Women's World Television Championship by defeating Mina Shirakawa. This was an open challenge by Mone, and had she lost, Shirakawa would have become double champion. Interestingly, the former Sasha Banks won another title a few hours back.

Mercedes Mone became the new Winnipeg Pro Wrestling Women’s Champion by defeating TNA Jody Threat. By pulling this off, she is now the holder of twelve belts in total. To celebrate this historic achievement, the former WWE star gave herself a new name on X: 12 belts Mone.

Wrestling personality Jim Cornette takes his contempt for Mercedes Mone to the next level

A few days back, former wrestling manager Jim Cornette brutally buried the CEO on his The Jim Cornette's Drive Thru podcast on his YouTube channel. He called the TBS Champion a rotten actress and also said that she was physically unimpressive in the squared circle.

"She's a rotten actress. She's physically unimpressive; she's, to me, in the ring because she misses as much as she hits, or she's trying to hold her wig on top, and you know, but she loves what she's doing. We can't deny that she's just not really very good at any of the parts of it. And did I mention those rotten promos? But she's got dedication," said Cornette.

Irrespective of Cornette's hate for Mercedes Mone, Tony Khan has immense faith in her. Only time will tell what the future holds for the former WWE star in All Elite Wrestling.
