Mercedes Mone suddenly references WWE RAW star in a cryptic post

Mercedes Mone won the 2025 Women’s Owen Hart Foundation Tournament at AEW Double or Nothing last month, defeating Jamie Hayter in the final. This victory earned her a shot at the AEW Women’s World Championship at All In: Texas, where she will battle “Timeless” Toni Storm. She is also scheduled to wrestle at AEW Grand Slam Mexico this Wednesday. The CEO will challenge Zeuxis for the CMLL World Women’s Championship.

Ahead of the encounter, Mercedes took to X and shared a picture from her face-off with current WWE RAW Superstar and then-NJPW Strong Women's Champion Stephanie Vaquer at the CMLL x NJPW FantasticaMania Mexico event in June 2024. This face-off was followed by their Winner Takes All Match for the Strong Women's Title and the TBS Championship at Forbidden Door later that month.

The grueling bout was eventually won by Mone. However, despite her defeat, this outing helped La Primera garner immense popularity, eventually leading to her signing with WWE. The cryptic post could be Mercedes Mone's way of hinting that she would soon turn Zeuxis into a star like she did with Stephanie.
