AEW teases Mercedes Moné's debut with 'Big Business' show
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
AEW has announced it is heading to Boston for a very special edition of Dynamite on March 13.
The event, which will be held at the TD Garden, is expected to be the debut of Mercedes Moné (aka WWE's Sasha Banks).
On Wednesday's edition of Dynamite, AEW CEO Tony Khan announced that the March 13 show would be titled 'Big Business', describing it as: "A very important night for AEW and the entire pro wrestling industry."

A graphic then appeared on screen promoting the show where a 'BO$$TON' logo could be read, presumably a reference to Moné's former 'boss' nickname.
Following the announcement of 'Big Business,' Fightful Select reported that Moné has been on AEW’s payroll since at least early January.
Moné did attend AEW's All In show at Wembley Stadium last August and was shown sitting in the crowd.
In May 2022, Moné and Naomi walked out of WWE while they were the Women's Tag Team Champions.
Moné then made her debut for New Japan Pro Wrestling on January 4, 2023, at Wrestle Kingdom 17.

She would go on to capture the IWGP Women's Championship from Kairi, before losing the title after a 64-day reign.
Moné competed in the tournament to crown the inaugural NJPW Strong Women's Champion, making it to the finals against Willow Nightingale on May 21.
However, during their match, Moné suffered an ankle injury, leading to Willow winning the title and putting Moné on the shelf ever since.
