Mercedes Moné (formerly Sasha Banks) recently responded to NJPW Strong Women’s Champion Giulia, who has expressed her desire to face the former WWE star.

After being the hottest free agent on the market for quite some time, it seems Moné is AEW-bound.  She tasted success in WWE but departed in 2022 due to issues with the creative team. Soon after that, the former 'Boss' made her presence felt in NJPW and World Wonder Ring Stardom while also becoming the IWGP Women's Champion.  

While Mercedes Moné is on the verge of her return from injury, NJPW Strong Women’s Champion Giulia has stated that she is still wishing to face Mercedes Moné, who has been on the sideline since Giulia won the title from Willow Nightingale in July last year.

Speaking with Tokyo Sports, the NJPW Strong Women’s Champion said that she has been aiming to put her title on the line against Mone. Here is what she said:

“I have been thinking ever since I won the belt that I have to put this belt on the line and beat Mone to overturn this saying,” Giulia said. “I can’t tell you right now where I will go from here, but I will continue to defend this belt until I find Mone.”

Mercedes Moné responds

Taking to Twitter/X, Mercedes Moné seemingly indicated her AEW debut at Big Business and wants the champ to show as she wrote:

"You standing on big business or u just standing around! YoU know where to find me Julia @giulia0221g"

Giulia is set to be a free agent when her STARDOM contract expires at the end of March. Meanwhile, Moné is reportedly set to debut for AEW this month at Big Business.

It was last month that AEW President Tony Khan confirmed that the March 13, episode of Dynamite will take place at the TD Garden in Boston, MA. The location and the show's name being billed "Big Business" indicates that Mercedes Moné will make her debut at the show.
