Mercedes Mone reacts to Tony Khan's major new AEW signing: "A presence that commands attention"

TBS Champion Mercedes Mone has praised a recent AEW signing announced by Tony Khan. Megan Bayne made a surprising appearance during the first-ever Women's Casino Gauntlet on Dynamite a few weeks back.

The new AEW signing also had a singles squash match against Hyena Hera on a recent episode of Collision. Following her win, Tony Khan officially announced that Megan had signed with the promotion with an All Elite graphic.

Although Bayne has wrestled multiple matches for Tony Khan's promotion in the past, she is now an official member of the company's women's division. Mercedes Mone, the current TBS Champion, expressed her thoughts on the situation.

In the latest edition of her Mone Mag newsletter, The CEO described Megan as a rising superstar:

"Megan Bayne has officially signed with AEW, and let me tell you, this powerhouse is nothing short of spectacular! With a presence that commands attention and a look that screams superstar, she truly is a goddess from above. The moment I laid eyes on her, I knew we were witnessing the rise of a star!"

Mercedes also shared thoughts on Bayne's first win after signing on Collision:

"But it's not just her stunning appearance that has me buzzing—it's her presence she commands when she performs in the ring. Her first win? Just the beginning of what promises to be an incredible journey!" [H/T Mone Mag]
