AEW TBS and NJPW Strong Women’s Champion Mercedes Mone shared her experience of meeting Shane McMahon. In her newsletter, she recounted the incident and hinted at McMahon’s potential arrival at WWE’s biggest competitor, AEW.

The newsletter stated, “After it all, by only the fates aligned – I walked into the airport, was in line by the bagel shop when I suddenly looked up, and there he was, just as surprised as I was. My first day being a double title holder and the first wrestler and former WWE Superstar I see is McMahon….come on, if that isn’t the universe working in divine timing, I don’t know what else it could be. I’ve always loved Shane. When we locked eyes, we both kind of looked at each other like IS THAT YOU? Our faces lit up as we got to talking a bit and before he boarded his flight, he gave me his number… the rest as they say a history or maybe a mystery!”

The potential arrival of Shane McMahon at AEW has sent shockwaves through the wrestling industry. Fans are awaiting further developments in the Shane O’Mac situation. Adding fuel to the fire, AEW President Tony Khan recently expressed openness to welcoming McMahon, keeping the door wide open for his arrival.
