Folks, this is what we call a masterclass in champion behavior! Mercedes Mone, the AEW TBS Champion, just gave Hikaru Shida a crash course in why she’s the champ. Last night on “AEW Dynamite,” Mone, with her trusty sidekick Kamille (the human brick wall), put Shida through a match so wild it could’ve been a Netflix series. And, as if the drama wasn’t enough, she set the stage for an All In showdown with Britt Baker that’s going to be hotter than a midsummer night at Wembley.
So, here’s how it went down. Mone was all business from the start, slapping on a crossface that had Shida seeing stars. Shida, of course, didn’t just roll over. No, she brought the fight back with some big moves of her own, including a Falcon Arrow that should’ve had Mone’s name written all over it. But Kamille? She was the wild card, folks. She distracted Shida just long enough for Mone to hit a meteora and, later, the Mone Maker that sealed the deal.
But wait—there’s more! As if retaining her title wasn’t enough, Mone and Kamille decided to turn things up to eleven. When Britt Baker’s music hit, Kamille did what any sensible enforcer would do: she pulled a random masked person out of the crowd and gave them the beatdown of a lifetime. Spoiler alert: it wasn’t Baker. The real D.M.D. pulled a fast one and snuck up on Mone, slapping on the Lockjaw like it was going out of style.
Kamille, of course, wasn’t about to let her boss get dental work in the middle of the ring. She pushed Baker off and got Mone out of there faster than you can say “Wembley Stadium.” But not before Baker grabbed that TBS Championship and made her intentions crystal clear.
The stage is set, folks! Mone vs. Baker at All In. This is going to be huge—bigger than anything you’ve ever seen. The only question left is: can Mone hold onto her title with Baker breathing down her neck, or will she need more than Kamille’s brick-like assistance to keep the gold?
