Mercedes Moné Drops Massive Tease Ahead Of AEW Dynamite Announcement

Moné is stirring the pot, and fans are eating it up.

Mercedes Moné has the wrestling world buzzing once again.

Speculation has run rampant on what the former IWGP Women's Champion will do once she's ready to return to the ring. Moné, formerly known as Sasha Banks in WWE, has been out of action since May 2023 after suffering an ankle injury in her Strong Women's Championship tournament final match against Willow Nightingale.

It certainly was not the way Moné envisioned her post-WWE run going, but could she be on the verge of a massive return to the ring?

Numerous reports have suggested that Mercedes Moné is AEW-bound. In fact, the word going around is that AEW founder Tony Khan held off on announcing the signing of Moné in the wake of the Vince McMahon allegations. It's said that Khan felt the McMahon story would overshadow any surprises AEW might have up its sleeve.

AEW is promoting that Tony Khan will have an announcement on the February 7th episode of Dynamite. Moné dropped the following post on X amid all the speculation:

Oh it feels good when executing a vision.

"Oh it feels good when executing a vision," Moné said.

Fightful and Andrew Zarian had reported that Moné was expected to appear in AEW next month. That doesn't rule out the chance that she could be the subject of tomorrow night's announcement, although nothing has been confirmed.

Others have thrown out the possibility that Khan could announce the signing of Kazuchika Okada, who shocked the industry when it was revealed he won't be re-signing with NJPW. Okada's final match for New Japan will take place on February 11 against his classic rival Hiroshi Tanahashi.

We'll keep you posted on what Tony Khan announces on AEW Dynamite this week.
