Top AEW star wants a title for a title match against Mercedes Mone
The current AEW Women's World Champion Mariah May pitched a title for a title match against the TBS Champion Mercedes Mone. Although Mone is holding three more titles outside of Tony Khan's promotion, May is focused on the TBS title.
Speaking on The Wrestling Classic, Mariah May said she wants a title for a title match against Mone:
“We may as well. I say title for title. I’m not interested in this plethora of indie titles she’s now running around on TV with. I don’t care, I don’t want to cover up this body. I’m interested in the world title and the TBS Title because I’m in All Elite Wrestling, so I would love to hold both. Mariah Two Belts? How about that? But she kind of came in with her little M.M. initials, trying to steal my flame, and it hasn’t really worked out for her because I’m the World Champion, she’s not."

Henceforth, only time will tell when Tony Khan's promotion will finally pull the trigger on Mariah May vs. The CEO.
