The free agent in question is Mercedes Mone, formerly known as Sasha Banks, to the WWE Universe. Mone made her shocking debut for NJPW at the promotion’s Wrestle Kingdom event on January 4th.
With her arrival at the Tokyo Dome, many fans thought that she would be heading to AEW as Saraya’s mystery partner for the January 11th edition of Dynamite. However, on the January 4th edition of the show, Saraya picked Toni Storm to be her partner instead.
According to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio, the backstage reaction to Storm being revealed as the mystery partner was an interesting one. Meltzer even went as far as to speculate that some of the women in the match even thought Mercedes Mone would be there, but now things look a bit different.
Will Mercedes Mone be All Elite in the near future? Only time will tell!
Next week’s AEW Dynamite is shaping up to be one of the biggest of all time
Despite some disappointment from fans at the news that Mercedes Mone might not be at next week’s Dynamite, the show on January 11th is shaping up to be one of the most exciting shows of all time!
Not only will Saraya and Toni Storm team up to take on Jamie Hayter and Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D., but Jon Moxley and Hangman Page will finally have their hotly anticipated rematch.
Elsewhere on the card, Bryan Danielson will begin his road to the AEW World Championship match at Revolution when he takes on Konosuke Takeshita.
On top of all of this, the final match in the best-of-seven series between The Elite and Death Triangle will take place. Match seven will be a ladder match, with the winners not only taking home the series, but also the AEW Trios Championships.
