Hardcore wrestling can sometimes get extremely violent. Mercedes Mone recently stated that she doesn't want her brother to watch something of such nature. Her rival Kris Statlander broke on-screen character to agree with her.

Statlander and Mone have been feuding for a few weeks now. This week on Dynamite, Renee Paquette caught up with the former TBS Champion for a brief backstage interview.

Following their conversation, the fans saw Mone's bodyguard Kamille almost running a car over Statlander. The latter then retaliated by attacking the current TBS Champions and her accomplice.

Mone recently made a statement where she stated that she didn't want her brother Joshua exposed to hardcore violence. Reacting to her statement on Ring The Belle podcast, Kris Statlander said she respects Mone's feelings.

So I completely understand that I respect that there's it's not for everybody." [From 6:40 to 7:08]
