AEW TBS champion Mercedes Mone says she is “the Beyonce of wrestling”

During an interview with Denise Salcedo, AEW TBS champion Mone commented on potentially being in the main event of AEW All In: Texas. At one point, Mercedes compared herself to singer Beyonce…

“That’s what I’ve been dreaming about, main eventing All In. This is our Super Bowl. This is our biggest pay-per-view of the year. You’re talking to the biggest star in all of professional wrestling, in all of women’s wrestling. I put women’s wrestling on the map, so to do that in Texas, well, I am the Beyonce of wrestling.” (quote courtesy of WrestlingInc.com)

Mercedes also gave credit to AEW women’s champion Toni Storm…

“Before I even thought about signing with AEW, I was watching Toni weeks upon weeks, and I was so captivated by her charisma, character, and presence. I think she is not only one of the best women, (she is) one of the best talents in the whole world. I’ve never seen a woman captivate a character so on demand like she does. She brings so much to AEW, and I can’t wait to take that all away from here [laughs].” (quote courtesy of Fightful.com)
