Eric Bischoff is no fan of Mercedes Mone’s promos since coming to AEW and believes they are a sign of a huge problem within the promotion.
On a recent episode of his “83 Weeks” podcast, Bischoff criticized Mone and believes he could do a better job conducting promos and interviews than those in AEW. He said,
“You give me a f**king iPhone and a flashlight, and I will produce an interview with Swerve Strickland — and I’ve never talked to the man, much less know what he’s capable of delivering. But I swear to god, you give me a f**king iPhone and a flashlight and I’ll produce a that would have blown Mercedes out of the out of the building. She was f**king horrible. Horrible.”
He continued, “She’s just not [good.] She wasn’t in WWE, but guess what? They knew that, and they worked around that. Because you can, if you’re smart, if you know what you’re doing. And rather, AEW hands her a microphone, says, ‘Go out and cut a promo for four minutes or three minutes or whatever.’ And every time she opens her mouth, her stock value decreases by about 10%. She’d be much better off never saying anything and just smiling and doing a little f**king dance, and coming out with funny hair and doing all that s**t. That got her over.”
Mone debuted for AEW at Big Business in March 2024. She will challenge for the AEW TBS Championship at Double or Nothing later this month.
