Mercedes Monet continues to reign supreme in wrestling, boasting six championship titles. Recently, she hinted at a daring career shift beyond wrestling. On X, Moné posted a picture showcasing all six of her belts and humorously suggested a possible future in politics, even making fun of a former wrestler who transitioned into a political role.
This update follows her win against Zeuxis at AEW Grand Slam Mexico, where she added the CMLL Women’s World Championship to her impressive trove. Monet is now setting her sights on the AEW Women’s World Championship, which she will contend for against “timeless” Toni Storm at All: Texas on July 12th.
While her political remarks were likely made in jest, the notion of Mercedes Monet entering public service isn’t far-fetched. Several wrestlers have ventured into politics before, such as Jesse Ventura, the former governor of Minnesota, Kane (Glen Jacobs), who is currently the mayor of Knox County, and Linda McMahon, who held a cabinet position in the Trump administration.
Fan Take: This news is exciting for AEW fans because it highlights Mercedes Monet’s growing influence not just in wrestling but potentially beyond it, showcasing the multifaceted impact wrestlers can have. Her continued championship pursuits combined with her bold personality could elevate the sport’s visibility and inspire more dynamic storytelling in AEW.
