The reigning NJPW STRONG Openweight Champion, Gabe Kidd, sought to create a photo opportunity with Mercedes Mone, only to be rebuffed by the erstwhile Sasha Banks.
Kidd hoped to use a joint picture with Mone as a promotional image for NJPW STRONG but was met with an abrupt refusal. In a tweet, he noted,
“AYYYYO @MercedesVarnado”
“I THINK IT’S IMPORTANT FOR THE IMAGE OF THE NJPW STRONG BRAND WE GET A CHAMPION’S PIC TOGETHER IN DC”
“FOR THE BRAND”
“NE‼️”
Mone’s response to Kidd’s request was quite pointed. She replied, “PIPE DOWN BRUV.”
Mone’s distinct and public refusal came via Twitter on August 15, 2024.
