As we previously reported here on eWn, there are some reports that plans for Mercedes Mone and AEW to work together are no longer active. Despite this, the talks aren’t “dead” just yet. For those unaware, Mone is also no longer under contract to New Japan Pro Wrestling.
According to a report from Fightful Select, Mone’s asking price was above what Charlotte Flair is said to have received in her new deal with WWE. Flair’s new WWE contract featured a major increase in pay and is believed to be one of the highest-paid deals to a woman in WWE history.
It’s worth noting that there’s no word on whether Mone’s asking price is the reason she’s no longer factored into AEW’s original plans to sign her. With that being said, both Mone and AEW have been “far apart” on the “terms” for quite some time. It’s still unknown whether that is due to the number of dates, schedule, monetary terms, or creative.
