Mercedes Moné All In London

Mercedes Moné looked back at the specific moment in 2023 when she received an invitation to AEW All In London. At that time, she was still navigating ongoing talks with WWE, yet the offer to attend the event at Wembley Stadium was one she could not pass up. She emphasized her deep love for professional wrestling and stated there was no way she would miss witnessing a show of such magnitude outside of the WWE ecosystem. For her, being around history is important, but being a part of it is even better. The instant she arrived in London, she felt the energy was different and right. Backstage, she encountered Tony Khan, who was visibly excited to have her present. His enthusiasm led to a request for her to participate in a backstage segment with Willow. Moné had to clarify her status immediately, noting that she is not signed to AEW and does not work there. She made it clear she was simply there to enjoy the show as a spectator. During her time backstage, she spotted several familiar faces, including Amanda Huber, Renee, and Rusev. She also took the opportunity to meet many new people within the promotion. Eventually, she was escorted to her box seats, marking a rare occasion where she could truly be a fan. She highlighted how uncommon this experience is for her, noting that she never really had the chance to sit in the crowd at WrestleMania. She admitted there might have been one instance where she attended in disguise for a Bayley match, but otherwise, she was always working. This time allowed her to sit without any pressure. There were no entrances to plan and no matches to prepare for. It was just Moné surrounded by more than 80,000 screaming wrestling fans celebrating the thing she loves most. From the treatment she received upon arrival at Wembley, she realized in that moment that she loved the experience.
