Mercedes Mone has been on the run of a lifetime in AEW. However, that exceptional tenure has created a big problem for the company, according to a WWE legend.
The CEO joined AEW in March 2024 and immediately made a huge impact in the promotion. In her very first match, she defeated Willow Nightingale to become the TBS Champion at the Double or Nothing event.
Since that night, Mercedes has had a remarkable title reign. She has defeated the likes of Kris Statlander, Britt Baker, and Anna Jay and cemented a winning streak of 15-0 after becoming a part of AEW.

Witnessing the dominance of the former WWE Superstar, wrestling legend Tommy Dreamer stated on the latest edition of Busted Open Radio that he does not see anyone ending Mone's title reign anytime soon.
A former WWE writer just went after JBL for his comments HERE
His co-host, former AEW Women's World Champion Thunder Rosa, agreed with Dreamer. She claimed that the company needs to build a legitimate threat that could end Mercedes Mone's dominant run as TBS Champion.
"I think it's going to take a while because they need to build somebody that is credible to take her place. She's been so dominant, and that's one of the issues, right? When you have somebody so dominant in the women's division, or in any division, to create someone who is credible enough to say, okay, this person will take away or will be able to beat them. In this case, we have yet to see that." [H/T Wrestling Inc]
Mercedes Mone is set to defend her title against another popular AEW star
Mercedes Mone is coming off one of the greatest matches in her AEW career, in her view. She defeated Kris Statlander at Worlds End to retain her TBS title, which also made history in her own right.
The CEO is next set to defend her NJPW Strong Women's Championship against popular AEW star Mina Shirakawa. The match is slated to take place on January 5 at NJPW's Wrestle Dynasty, which is expected to be another stellar showdown.
As for her reign as TBS Champion, there is some credibility in the words of both Tommy Dreamer and Thunder Rosa. So we will have to wait and see who steps up to the occasion and poses a legitimate threat to Mercedes Mone's run.
