Mercedes Mone’s sudden absence from WWE and reports of stalled negotiations have sparked numerous speculations about her future in the wrestling world. A recent interview with Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio provided insight into the reason behind the failed talks between Mone and WWE. According to Meltzer, money issues played a significant role in their negotiations falling through. He stated that the two parties were far apart on monetary demands, with one WWE individual emphasizing the importance of not repeating the mistakes made with the recent past with CM Punk.
Meltzer also revealed that another point of contention was Mone’s evolving career in acting, which could restrict her creative freedom within WWE. He noted that AEW would offer her more liberty to pursue her acting endeavors, whereas WWE, under the previous management of Vince McMahon, was known for being more controlling. This added element of friction would ultimately contribute to the breakdown in talks between Mone and WWE.
