During a recent interview with WFAN, AEW TBS Champion Mercedes Mone commented on walking out of WWE in May 2022, wanting to be the CEO of her own life, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On walking out of WWE: “For so many years, everyone wants the tea on that drama. You’re not going to get it unless you buy the book maybe ten years later.”
On wanting to be the CEO of her own life: “For me, I went from a Legit Boss to a CEO because I wanted to grow. There was something in my soul that said, ‘You need to grow.’ I wanted to be the CEO of my own life. There was a light source that came into my heart that day. ‘You have to do what’s right for you. What’s happening right now at this moment is not right. You have to take your life in your hands and go make it happen. Go make your heart happy. Go let them know that what they’re doing right now is wrong and show them.’”
On following her heart: “I did. I had to let them know that I am the right one that you messed with that day, and now here I am today, one of the highest paid women in women’s wrestling history. The TBS Champion, going after the New Japan Strong Women’s Championship. I get to do so much of my dreams because of that day that I walked out and trusted my heart.”
