The past few days have been a turbulent stretch for AEW star Mercedes Moné, as she’s relinquished two championships in quick succession. After a shocking defeat at the hands of Persephone on Friday night, Moné suffered another setback, losing the BestYa Wrestling Women’s Championship to Swan on Sunday in Bagnolo Cremasco, Italy. This marks the third championship loss for Moné in as many matches, raising questions about her current trajectory in professional wrestling.
Moné’s recent string of losses began on December 17th, 2025, with a defeat to Alex Windsor for the RevPro Undisputed British Women’s Championship at an AEW Collision taping in Manchester. She and Athena then fell short in an attempt to capture the AEW Women’s World Tag Team Championship against The Babes of Wrath at World’s Finish. Just four days later, on January 1st, 2026, Moné lost the TBS Championship to Willow Nightingale at New Year’s Smash. The losses have quickly mounted for the once dominant Moné, now holding only seven titles across various independent groups.
The most recent loss came at CMLL’s “La Noche de las Amazonas” event at Arena México on March 6th, where Persephone defeated Moné to become the new CMLL Women’s World Champion. The victory was a significant upset, with Persephone overcoming Moné in front of a hostile crowd. Ringside News reported that Moné even provoked the audience by wearing a lucha-style mask and raising both middle fingers toward them before the match began.
Following the CMLL defeat, Moné traveled to Italy for the Mone Mayhem event, where she faced Swan for the BestYa Women’s Championship. The Drainmaker reported on X (formerly Twitter) that Moné lost the title, stating she is now down to seven championships.
Despite these recent setbacks, Moné has a busy schedule of international appearances planned. She is confirmed to wrestle at Banger Zone Wrestling in France on March 14th, RevPro Wrestling on March 21st, and Winnipeg Pro Wrestling in Canada on March 31st. Notably, the Winnipeg appearance is scheduled the night before AEW Dynamite is held in the same city on April 1st.
The losses have sparked discussion among wrestling fans, with many questioning the reasons behind Moné’s recent struggles. TPWW.net noted that Moné has now lost a significant number of championships in a short period, and her absence from AEW programming since the New Year’s Eve edition of Dynamite has similarly fueled speculation.
As Moné prepares for her upcoming international dates, the wrestling world will be watching to see how she responds to this challenging period. Her next confirmed appearance is at Banger Zone Wrestling in France on March 14th, and fans will be eager to see how she performs after a difficult weekend. The Winnipeg appearance, so close to an AEW Dynamite event, will also be closely scrutinized.
What comes next for Mercedes Moné remains to be seen, but her upcoming schedule provides opportunities to regain momentum and prove her continued dominance in the world of professional wrestling. Share your thoughts on Moné’s recent losses and her future prospects in the comments below.
