AEW WrestleDream promises even higher stakes tonight, as it will not only feature the TBS Championship but also a rare title vs. title showdown.
On Friday, Mercedes Mone issued an open challenge for her TBS Championship during the AEW WrestleDream pay-per-view build-up, inviting any champion from around the world to step forward. The following day, AEW President Tony Khan announced that whoever accepts Mone’s challenge must also put their own championship on the line. This means that Mone now has the opportunity to make history by surpassing Ultimo Dragon’s record for the most titles held at one time.
Khan posted on social media:
“After last night’s Arena México win, longest reigning TBS Champ @MercedesVarnado puts up the TBS Title vs any champion + their belt! 10 Belts Moné aims to set the record for most belts held simultaneously TONIGHT!”
Mone is coming off a big victory at Arena Mexico, where she defeated Persephone to retain the CMLL Women’s World Championship. Her busy schedule continues this weekend as she is also set to appear at Winnipeg Pro Wrestling’s Rumble in the Bert event on Sunday, where she will challenge Jody Threat for the women’s title.
