Mercedes Moon Wants To Wrestle Mickie James And Her “Retire A**” – Wrestling Inc.
Free Agent and IWGP Women’s Champion Mercedes Mone is the talk of women’s wrestling at the moment, but her presence comes with a heavy price tag.
During a fan Q&A at Planet Comicon Hosted by AEW’s Leva Bates, Mona was asked about a potential match with Impact Knockouts Champion Mickie James, stating that “She’s waiting for the briefcase, I’m waiting for Mickie James. I definitely want to wrestle Mickie James. Mickie James is one of the legit idols.”
Mooney says James’ storyline with Trish Stratus inspired her already budding ambitions in wrestling. “I was like ‘I have to do this.'” I want to do this. According to Mooney, when James returned to WWE, she was hoping for the kind of important singles match that never came, only tag matches at live events, describing a singles match as a “dream” for her.
“I definitely believe that in 2023 I can definitely make that dream come true. I would definitely like to face Mickey James and retire her a**; send her back to the rodeo and ride that horse. Bye Mickey.” Mooney was then quick to address “any promoters listening” suggesting that while she is open to a match, there are no plans yet.
Mone won the IWGP Women’s Championship Battle in the valley In February, by defeating inaugural champion KAIRI. It was her first match since then He left WWE in mid-2022. Earlier in the interview, Mone said she was set to defend her NJPW Sakura Genesis title but no challenger has been announced yet.
