Mercedes Mone wins her 11th current title belt, if you have lost count!
At WrestleDream on Saturday, Mone had an open challenge. This open challenge was against a champion with both the TBS Championship and the other individual’s title on the line. The woman who answered the challenge was Mina Shirakawa, who was the Interim ROH Women’s TV Champion. She won the title to become the interim champion after Red Velvet went out with an injury.
The final moments of the match had Shirakawa get caught in a backslide with Mone’s feet on the ropes for leverage. Mone won, but before she could celebrate, she was confronted by AEW Women’s World Champion Kris Statlander. Statlander retained her title earlier in the night against Toni Storm.
Mone went after Statlander, but Statlander ducked it and laid Moné out. Before Mone’s open challenge, she showed up during Statlander’s celebration of her win over Storm and demanded that Statlander leave the ring. Prior to this, Storm and Statlander embraced as a show of respect.
Also at WrestleDream, Jamie Hyater defeated Thekla. This match had everyone banned from ringside.
On the preshow, Willow Nightingale and Harley Cameron defeated Penelope Ford and Megan Bayne.
