In the latest Mone Mag edition, former AEW TBS champion
Mercedes Mone addressed the several rumors that surrounded
her near six-month absence from AEW television.
She wrote that in 16 years, she never had a break that long
which wasn’t due to an injury and it was the first time that
she got to truly relax and have no worries, returning
feeling better than ever.
“But one thing I realized during that time away? I missed
wrestling so much,” Mone wrote. “Especially that AEW.”
She also saw the several rumors while she was away,
including being pregnant, contract issues, and rumors of
leaving AEW.
“NOTHING. Can I enjoy my vacation in peace? Can a woman have
a period and be bloated?” she wrote. “Can I enjoy my time
off without speculation and rumors?”
Mone said that one thing she learned is that no one is more
impatient than wrestling fans.
“Y’all are the type of people who look up the ending of a
movie before finishing it. You love not being surprised. You
love not being present and fully in the moment because
you’re so caught up in the fantasy,” she continued. “But now
the wait is over.”
She said that she wasn’t gone because of injuries or
contract issues, but was just waiting for the right time to
return.
