“The CEO” Mercedes Mone is celebrating a significant milestone in AEW, marking one full year as the TBS Champion. She initially captured the title from Willow Nightingale at AEW Double or Nothing on May 26, 2024, and has since established a dominant reign.
Over the past year, Mone has reportedly made an impressive 17 successful title defenses, turning back challenges from top contenders such as Kris Statlander, Hikaru Shida, Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D., Stephanie Vaquer, and Anna Jay, among others. Her victories have solidified her status as a top star.
At last night’s AEW Double or Nothing 2025 pay-per-view, she emerged victorious in the Owen Hart Foundation Women’s Tournament, defeating former AEW Women’s World Champion Jamie Hayter in a hard-fought final match. She will challenge Toni Storm for the Women’s Title at All In.
