The Road to Recovery: Uncertainty Surrounds Mone’s Return to the Ring
As the wrestling community eagerly anticipates AEW’s ‘WrestleDream’ event, a cloud of uncertainty hovers over Mercedes Mone’s participation. Tony Khan, the President of AEW, recently addressed the speculations surrounding the former WWE Women’s Champion’s return to the ring.
Mercedes Mone, who was last seen in the audience at AEW’s ‘All In’ event in London, has been on a hiatus since sustaining an ankle injury during the inaugural NJPW Strong Women’s Championship match against Willow Nightingale. During a media call before AEW’s ‘All Out’, Khan expressed his admiration for Mone, praising her as one of the world’s top wrestling talents. However, he also shared his reservations about her being cleared to wrestle by October 1, the date for the ‘WrestleDream’ event in Seattle, Washington.
Khan emphasized Mone’s significant injury and stated that while she remains one of the most sought-after talents, her health and recovery are paramount. The timeline for her return remains uncertain, but fans and the wrestling community alike are hopeful for her speedy recovery and eventual return to the squared circle.
