The championship collecting spree continues for Mercedes Moné, who just proved that her global dominance extends far beyond All Elite Wrestling. The CEO shocked wrestling fans in Vienna, Austria, by making an unannounced appearance at the European Wrestling Association’s marquee event and walking away with another title around her waist.
Surprise Strike in Austria
Wrestling fans at EWA’s “Prater Catchen” event got the surprise of a lifetime when Moné emerged as the mystery competitor in their main event triple threat match. The annual showcase represents the European Wrestling Association’s biggest night of the year, making it the perfect stage for such a massive reveal.
Facing off against defending champion Lexa Valo and challenger Mila Smidt, Moné wasted no time establishing her presence in European wrestling. The former WWE Superstar captured the EWA Women’s Championship, adding yet another prestigious title to her ever-growing collection.
The Five-Belt Empire Grows
This latest conquest brings Moné’s championship count to an impressive five active titles. Her current collection includes the AEW TBS Championship, which she’s held with authority since her All Elite Wrestling debut. The RevPro Undisputed British Women’s Championship, technically consisting of two separate belts, showcases her international appeal.
Her recent Owen Hart Foundation Tournament victory at AEW Double or Nothing added another piece of hardware to the collection. Now, with the EWA Women’s Championship secured, Moné continues building her case as wrestling’s most decorated active female competitor.
Weekend Defense Potential
The “Prater Catchen” event spans two nights, creating intrigue about whether The CEO will make another appearance. Wrestling insiders speculate that Moné could return for night two to defend her newly won EWA title, though no official confirmation has emerged from the promotion or the champion herself.
Such a quick turnaround would demonstrate Moné’s commitment to elevating every championship she holds, regardless of the promotion’s size or location.
Eyes on All In Texas
Despite her European adventures, Moné’s primary focus remains on AEW’s biggest prize. Her upcoming showdown with “Timeless” Toni Storm for the AEW Women’s World Championship at All In Texas on July 12 represents a historic opportunity.
Victory against Storm would make Moné the first woman in company history to simultaneously hold both major AEW women’s titles. This achievement would cement her legacy as the most dominant champion in the division’s relatively young history.
Building the Storm Rivalry
The psychological warfare continues as Moné prepares for her commentary duties during Storm’s defense against Julia Hart at AEW’s Summer Blockbuster TV special on June 11. Her previous commentary appearance during the Dynamite portion of Fyter Fest on June 4 showcased her ability to get inside Storm’s head while maintaining her professional obligations.
This unique dynamic adds layers to their brewing rivalry, with Moné positioned as both analyst and future challenger for Storm’s championship reign.
Mercedes Moné’s championship collecting tour shows no signs of slowing down, with five titles now secured across multiple continents. As she prepares for the biggest match of her AEW career, one has to wonder: will The CEO’s international success translate into the ultimate prize when she faces Toni Storm in Texas?
