Tony Khan has just announced that tomorrow night on AEW Dynamite, Mercedes Moné will once more have a chance to celebrate her time as a double champion after last week's attempt at this did not go so well. This comes after she became a double champion at Forbidden Door.
On the previous edition of Dynamite, The CEO came out to interrupt Britt Baker's segment, where she talked about her recovery from health issues to be ready for in-ring competition. Moné was set for a celebration following her win at Forbidden Door but decided to be petty and do this right in the middle of Baker's promo.
After the two got into a war of words instead of there being an actual celebration, Tony Khan has decided to hold this once more this week, when AEW heads to Calgary. But in the end, there is still a great chance of some interference taking place.
"TOMORROW, Wednesday, July 10 Calgary, Alberta Wednesday Night #AEWDynamite TOMORROW On TBS, 8pm ET/7pm CT @TBSNetwork Champion + @njpw1972 Strong Women's Champion The CEO @MercedesVarnado will raise a toast to her Double Title victory on TBS on Wednesday Night Dynamite TOMORROW!" TK tweeted.
Former WWE personality thinks Mercedes Moné has already turned heel
Former WWE host Sam Roberts recently talked about Mercedes Moné's character in AEW, and how despite not being outright about it, she was already showing heel behavior.
During his Notsam Wrestling podcast, Roberts looked back at the segment last week on Dynamite and brought up how between the two, Moné came across as the heel in this feud. He believed that she may be going with a self-centered, belt collector gimmick at this point.
"I don't know if Mercedes Mone is officially a 'heel' heel, but she certainly came across like a heel, and throwing a celebration for yourself while there is a returning superstar already in the ring, feels like a heel move. Man, I think that this should be when Mercedes just goes all the way. I think Mercedes as a heel is a hundred percent the way to go, especially if she's gonna do a belt collector-type gimmick."

Mercedes Moné was also seen last week interacting with The EVPs, The Young Bucks, and getting chummy with them. It remains to be seen whether this could be a tease between them working together in the future. These could be subtle hints that she was heading in the direction of moving forward as a heel.
