Mercedes Moné’s currently one of the flag bearers for AEW and she believes AEW is without an equal. That’s why she had a very appropriate reaction to WWE constantly counterprogramming AEW.
While speaking to TV Insider, Mercedes Moné was asked about WWE running shows that go head-to-head with AEW events and whether she sees it as flattery or added pressure.
The CEO of AEW stated that she doesn’t watch or care about what WWE is doing. Calling herself “Eight Belts Moné,” she pointed out that she’s a champion in multiple promotions and said the more wrestling, the better.
No matter what, she’s always going to be better, which is why she calls herself “The CEO.” Mercedes added that WWE can do whatever it wants, but AEW is taking over, and fans who want to see the best wrestling should be watching AEW.
“I don’t watch them. I don’t care about them. I’m “Eight Belts Moné.” I’m a champion of so many different companies. So, the more the merrier. If they want to put on wrestling shows while we have wrestling shows, I’m always going to be better. I’m always better. That’s why I call myself “The CEO.” They can keep on doing whatever they want to do, but AEW is taking over. If you want to watch the best, good wrestling, watch AEW.”
This comes after WWE has been pitting shows like Saturday Night’s Main Event against AEW All In: Texas, and is now set to pit the Wrestlepalooza Premium Live Event against the All Out pay-per-view in September this year.
The CEO of AEW is definitely not lacking in the confidence department since it’s clear she believes her company is truly better than WWE. So we’ll just how to see how AEW continues to fare about WWE’s counterprogramming tactics.
