It’s OFFICIAL! TBS Champion Nightingale & Moné sign the dotted line! | 5/15/24, AEW Dynamite

[@ChrisLT]

Man, Willow's really come into her own this year. Mercedes winning would lead to so much heat, but Willow winning would be a real statement. Looking forward to this one.

[@rkb89]

She's not gonna lose her first match

[@dannyknightblade4592]

​@@rkb89 Probably not; but it's weird for her to not be a Champion and get a Championship match in her first match in her new company. At least if it were Champion of another promotion versus Champion of this promotion I could understand that. Non Champion Mercedes Mone getting a title shot out of no where for apparently no reason in her very first match in AEW seems nonsensical to me.

[@Sunnyte_]

Finally she tapped into her natural heel side, idk what she was on the past couple of weeks. I understand they was trying to make her a baby face cause of her time away but she’s at her best as a heel. That ego she had is what makes her one of the best. Glad to see her finally showing out

[@mr.wright9867]

That's probably why they held out on her first match too. Give things a couple of months to get out of the "we glad she back" phase, then feel out what side to put her on. And let's be real: Willow, heel?????? Hell no

[@MrProzanoff]

@@mr.wright9867 right yea Willow is a natural babyface. she could be a cocky heel though i think, but Mercedes being heel is a good move because now she has some identity in aew

[@YuppThatWasMe]

Jfc her entrance with the chants and "dancing" is the cringiest entrance in wrestling history

[@mikemadsen7926]

She has go away heat she,ll be forced into becoming a heel but that's wasn't by choice

[@dannyknightblade4592]

​@@mikemadsen7926 Yeah, it's like the Young Bucks. The Young Bucks are really unlikable so even as babyfaces it feels forced. Mercedes Mone is pretty unlikable too so a heel turn for her was inevitable.

[@thetruej7872]

Whether she's the Legit Boss, The Blueprint, or CEO, Sasha/Mercedes is always a good heel

When was she the blueprint? That is Matt Morgan's nickname

[@thomasmoneybanks7576]

You forgot the standard :) ❤

[@Tengaryu_SB]

My favorite Sasha era was during her blue-themed run. I think she made blue the new black during this time. No one in the women’s division could wear the color better than she did, then or now. But out of all her nicknames, The Blueprint is my least likable one.

[@shaunmartinell5825]

Willow is such a great Face and Mercedes a classic Heel. Love this feud.

No let the ringer on the women's title belong to Athena because that is her show, not yours

Think long range booking. Mercedes beats Willow for the title, holds it for a while until Willow beats her for it down the road. This can be a long feud to elevate Willow and prepare her for the AEW women's championship scene.

By far Mercedes best promo since debuting in AEW. Other commenters are right she's just a natural heel despite seeming like a natural face IRL. Willow is also waaaaaaayyy better on the mic than I thought she would ever be given her super cheery gimmick. She's like a thiccer Bayley. Lol. I hope they tear it up in Vegas.

[@maraviyoso8473]

It was her least bad. She still sounds fake; but at least she was 80% fake, as opposed to 200% fake like she was weeks before. BTW, they still never explained how the injury happened and why Mone is that angry at Willow for that injury. No videos, no photos, nothing.

[@dacronicspotgaming6104]

[@CaughtLine-sl2oz]

AEW is in a hard place with this match. They prolly want to book Moné to win but damn Willow is mad over rn and shouldn’t lose. I think Kris Statlander costs willow the match and finally turns heel like they’ve been teasing

[@autogenerate8857]

If Willow loses, she'd become more over. If Mone wins, she'd get more heat. That's wrestling 101

[@charlesbradley7638]

Exactly but most likely Mone gone win in her debut & willow will become more over as an underdog & eventually move on to Toni storm
