Coming into All Elite Wrestling from the restricted boundaries in the WWE, Mercedes Mone is enjoying her days in the wrestling promotion. Her journey with the Tony Khan-owned promotion witnessed immense success as she kept on winning championships with the title collector moniker. As such, her wrestling career has become a priority in her career over the last year.
While Mercedes Mone loves to keep her personal life more private, it’s out that she’s recently been divorced from her husband, a WWE employee. Moving on from the earlier relationship, she has now set the record straight on potentially pursuing a romantic relationship, possibly outside wrestling, but that’s not happening, imminently given that she’s laser-focused on her career.
While speaking to 98.5 The Sports Hub, Mercedes Mone was asked if she had ever tried to dip her toe into the dating waters for a new romantic relationship, and whether there’s anyone in her life whom she could fall in love with. In response, she explained that she hasn’t tried anything like that because she simply doesn’t have enough time for such things. As such, wrestling remains her first love and passion.
“I haven’t tried because, um, I have no time to try. No, no, no, no. Not when you are a champion of four titles. This is my love right now, okay? This is my baby. This is my everything.” (quotes courtesy Ringside News)
