AEW TBS Champion Mercedes Mone has had some intense rivals in the Jacksonville-based promotion. However, she often breaks character to praise them and recently called her next opponent, Athena, the greatest women's wrestler of all time.
On this week's special Spring BreakThru edition of AEW Dynamite, TBS Champion Mercedes Mone will be competing against ROH Women's World Champion Athena in the semifinals of the Women's Owen Hart Foundation Tournament. The winner will go on to face either Kris Statlander or Jamie Hayter at the Double or Nothing PPV in Arizona.
During a recent appearance on Boston's Toucher & Hardy radio show on 98.5 The Sports Hub, Mercedes Mone praised Athena and her ROH Women's World Title reign. She called their upcoming bout one of her dream matches and said that she is excited for Wednesday.

And she is one of the greatest women’s wrestlers of all time. So I have goosebumps for tomorrow. It’s been one of my dream matches. Before I even made it to the WWE, I had my eyes on Athena. So this is something for me that I’m really, really excited for.” [H/T:F4WOnline]
