One of the most popular stars in the current era of professional wrestling is the CEO, Mercedes Moné. The former WWE Superstar is currently wrestling in AEW. Moné is the owner of two championships. She is the current AEW TBS Champion and the NJPW Strong Women’s Champion. Recently, the CEO shared her thoughts on two of her friends such as Natalya and Naomi.
While speaking in her latest newsletter, Mercedes Moné shared that The Queen of Harts has helped her grow in her career.
“Let me start with Natalya, an absolute legend in her own right. She’s been wrestling longer than me and has helped shape so many careers, including mine. My first dark matches, some of my first NXT matches—Natalya was right there with me. I still remember being in the ring with her, and she would whisper things like “You’re doing great” or “Amazing job,” honestly, that meant the world to me. Those little moments of encouragement? They stick with you. When I step in the ring with less-experienced talent, I try to pass that same energy along. It’s all about building confidence because trust me, we’ve all been there.”
Mercedes Moné on Naomi
Moné also shared her thoughts on her former tag team partner Naomi. The CEO mentioned that Naomi always made her feel safe in the ring.
“Naomi was another veteran I had the privilege of facing early on. She hadn’t been wrestling much longer than me, but her ring presence and kindness were everything. Naomi’s the type of person who makes you feel safe in the ring, always guiding and encouraging. She’s a total class act, and just like Natalya, she taught me so much about psychology and pacing in the ring. We should all aspire to be Natalya and Naomi – human beings who love what they do but do their part to lift others along with themselves. They are blessings to the craft,” Mercedes Moné said.
