BREAKING NEWS: “Sasha Banks Shocks the Wrestling World: AEW Debut as Mercedes Moné Ignites Boston”
WWE icon Sasha Banks has officially joined All Elite Wrestling (AEW) under the ring name Mercedes Moné, marking a significant transition in her wrestling career. Moné’s debut for AEW took place during the “Big Business” edition of AEW Dynamite in Boston, her hometown, where she made a grand entrance in a Mercedes-Maybach to the delight of the crowd. Addressing the audience, Moné expressed gratitude for their support throughout her journey, emphasizing the significance of her return to Boston.
Moné’s move to AEW marks the culmination of speculation surrounding her future in wrestling, following her departure from WWE where she achieved remarkable success under her Sasha Banks persona. During her tenure with WWE from 2012 to 2022, Moné held various titles, including the NXT Women’s Championship, Raw Women’s Championship, Smackdown Women’s Championship, and Women’s Tag Team Championship. However, her departure from WWE was marred by a reported creative dispute with WWE Chairman Vince McMahon, resulting in a contentious exit from the company.
Prior to joining AEW, Moné adopted the Mercedes Moné name and made appearances for New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW) and its sister promotion, World Wonder Ring Stardom. Her debut in AEW signifies a new chapter in her wrestling career, with fans eagerly anticipating her contributions to the promotion. Moné’s arrival in AEW was met with enthusiasm from fans, who celebrated her homecoming and showed their appreciation with chants of “CEO” and “welcome home.”
In addition to her wrestling accomplishments, Moné’s decision to join AEW reflects strategic considerations, including the potential for increased financial incentives due to Texas’ absence of state income tax. Moreover, her familiarity with AEW’s defensive coordinator, Mike Zimmer, from their time together in the Minnesota Vikings, likely influenced her decision to join the promotion.
As Moné embarks on this new journey with AEW, her debut appearance in Boston serves as a testament to her enduring popularity and the anticipation surrounding her future in wrestling. With her talent, charisma, and experience, Moné is poised to make a significant impact in AEW and continue her legacy as one of wrestling’s most dynamic performers.
