This TNA star believes Mercedes Moné should relinquish most of her championships just to be hated more.
Speaking on Busted Open, TNA Wrestling’s Tommy Dreamer stated that Mercedes Moné should defeat Kris Statlander for the AEW Women’s World Championship at Full Gear next month and then relinquish all her other 12 titles to generate more heat.
“I would have Mercedes win,” Tommy Dreamer began. “And just to be a bigger douche, vacate every title. Which then goes to [her saying], I’m not putting everybody over, but due to my hectic schedule, make her a bigger heel.
“I’m only acknowledging this title, almost like everything you did was a stepping stone to get to what you wanted. But then vacate every other title you have because this is the most meaningful. Which then also puts that light in that title for being the biggest one.”
Dreamer further claimed that the independent promotions will not get anything back from The CEO holding their championships. And that they will have to be content with the exposure they gained on AEW television.
“But I don’t know if they’re ever going to get that ‘get back.’ They got mentioned on television, they got their title, and be happy with it.” [H/T: Wrestling Inc.]
Tony Khan Recently Explained Mercedes Moné’s Decision To Work The Independent Scene
AEW President Tony Khan recently addressed Mercedes Moné’s decision to appear on independent promotions.
Speaking to Josh Martinez of Z100 New York, Tony Khan claimed that Mercedes Moné appears on other independent promotions due to her love for professional wrestling and that she doesn’t make much money out of those appearances.
“With all the commitments Mercedes has taken on, I think it’s really impressive. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, that shows it’s not about pure greed and money for Mercedes because a lot of these places she’s wrestling, Winnipeg, Canada, Denmark, they’re not the highest paying places.
“She’s not really making money from these. She loves wrestling. She loves building up companies, she loves meeting new young stars and she really cares about the craft and the sport of wrestling.” [H/T: F4WOnline]
