After coming short at the TBS Championship, last month, Kris Statlander is getting another shot at the title at AEW Worlds End 2024. Statlander and the reigning champion Mercedes Mone have agreed to a TBS Championship match on Saturday’s Collision at the Hammerstein Ballroom and that match has now been added to the final 2024 pay-per-view show of the year to be conducted by All Elite Wrestling.
Statlander made it clear, earlier that she was coming for the mid-card title. Then on Collision, shortly before her match against Penelope Ford, Statlander made the challenge to Mone. Following Statlander’s victory, Mone came out on the ramp and stated that she originally was going to take the night off at AEW Worlds End 2024. But since it’d be the holidays, she would grant Statlander another title match and would beat her, once again.
In an earlier promo on Collision, Statlander said that ever since Mone came into AEW, she has been in a downward spiral. Statlander only hoped that if she could regain the title at AEW Worlds End 2024 then she could start fixing some of the problems that she’s lately been dealing with.

Surpassing 200 days as the champion, Mercedes Mone now boasts of 10 championship defenses in her TBS Title reign and it came with a lot of finesse as she’s successfully defended against several prolific challengers of the AEW roster. One of those defenses occurred against Statlander at Full Gear 2024 which admittedly was one of the best matches in her AEW career.
