WWE fans were shocked with Sasha Banks and Naomi walked out of WWE in May 2022. Now, over a year removed from that controversial moment, and The Boss is getting a new spotlight thanks to a possible WWE return.
Mercedes Mone’s Current Contract Status
Mercedes Mone successfully revitalized her career and as she took her talent to Japan. She is no longer under any NJPW contract anymore, leaving her next choice in the pro wrestling business up in the air.
Some anticipate Mercedes Mone’s return to WWE, especially with Charlotte Flair currently sidelined due to injury. It would be perfect timing for Sasha Banks’ return, since the Royal Rumble is coming up in a matter of weeks.
Mercedes Mone Drops WWE Tease
Mercedes Mone recently shared a photo on her Instagram story, taken outside the TD Garden in Boston. That was the venue for WWE’s December 27th live event as part of their Holiday tour.
Although Mercedes Mone wasn’t actually in Boston for the December 27th show, she may have had WWE on her mind. We will have to see if Sasha Banks is back on the WWE roster the next time they travel to Beantown.
Mercedes Mone’s Future in Pro Wrestling
Mercedes Mone’s asking price for a new contract is very high, as some have speculated that she may want more than Charlotte Flair received for her latest contract extension. The Royal Rumble Premium Live Event on January 27th may provide a great platform for her return.
It was also reported that AEW no longer has a working plan to bring Mercedes Mone in. They did have plans for her, as proof by her appearance at AEW All In London, but she was injured at the time. Now that she is healthy again, we will have to see what happens.
