The CEO continues her championship collecting spree south of the border. Mercedes Mone added another prestigious title to her ever-growing collection at AEW Grand Slam Mexico, conquering CMLL World Women’s Champion Zeuxis in Arena Mexico. This victory marks Mone’s fifth active championship reign and solidifies her status as one of wrestling’s most dominant multi-promotional stars.
From Owen Hart Winner to CMLL Champion
Mone’s path to this CMLL triumph began with her Owen Hart Foundation Women’s Tournament victory at Double or Nothing. She conquered Jamie Hayter in the tournament finals, earning herself a golden ticket to challenge Toni Storm for the AEW Women’s World Championship at All In Texas.
But rather than rest on her laurels, the ambitious champion set her sights on international gold. Mone directly challenged Zeuxis for the CMLL World Women’s Championship, bringing her championship hunt to Mexico’s legendary wrestling scene.
Championship Collector Strikes Again
The victory over Zeuxis represents more than just another title win for Mone—it showcases her unprecedented multi-promotional dominance. Her current championship portfolio reads like a wrestling fan’s dream collection.
Beyond her newly won CMLL World Women’s Championship, Mone currently holds the AEW TBS Championship, EWA Women’s Championship, and RevPro Undisputed British Women’s Championship. She also carries the symbolic championship earned through her Owen Hart Tournament triumph.
Breaking Down Mone’s Title Reign Portfolio
This five-belt collection spans multiple continents and wrestling styles. From AEW’s sports-entertainment hybrid approach to CMLL’s traditional lucha libre heritage, Mone has proven her versatility across different wrestling cultures.
The CMLL World Women’s Championship carries particular prestige, representing one of Mexico’s most respected wrestling organizations. By capturing this title, Mone joins an elite group of wrestlers who have successfully crossed promotional and cultural boundaries.
All In Texas Showdown Looms Large
Mone’s championship collecting won’t slow down her pursuit of AEW’s top women’s prize. Her July 12 showdown with Toni Storm at All In Texas represents the biggest match of her AEW career to date.
The event, which also features Hangman Page challenging Jon Moxley for the AEW World Championship, positions itself as one of AEW’s most significant shows. Mone enters this title challenge with momentum from her international success and the confidence of a proven champion.
Multi-Promotional Wrestling’s New Standard
Mone’s approach to championship collecting reflects modern wrestling’s interconnected landscape. Rather than focusing solely on one promotion, top wrestlers now leverage relationships across multiple organizations to maximize their star power and championship opportunities.
Her success in CMLL demonstrates the value of wrestlers embracing different wrestling styles and audiences. This international approach not only expands her resume but also introduces her to new fanbases worldwide.
With five championships across multiple promotions and a date with destiny against Toni Storm approaching, Mercedes Mone has positioned herself as wrestling’s ultimate prize fighter. But will her championship collecting strategy give her the edge she needs to capture AEW’s most coveted women’s title, or could the pressure of defending multiple titles across different promotions finally catch up with the CEO?
