For the first time since arriving in AEW, Mercedes Mone has come up short.

Toni Storm emerged victorious at AEW All In, defeating Mone after an avalanche Storm Zero. Mone had put up a fight, kicking out after three consecutive Storm Zeroes, but Storm’s final move was enough to put away the TBS Champion. After the match, announcers mentioned that this was Mone’s first loss since her arrival in AEW last year.

Mone had spent the last year collecting titles, including AEW’s TBS Championship, in the lead-up to their match. She won the Owen Hart Foundation tournament at Double or Nothing, claiming the championship belt that comes with winning. In the weeks that followed she also won the CMLL Women’s Championship and the EWA Women’s Championship.

Since leaving WWE, Mone has only lost a few times. She formerly held the IWGP Women’s Championship before losing it to Mayu Iwatani in April of 2023. More recently, she lost the New Japan Strong Women’s Championship to AZM, who pinned Mina Shirakawa in a triple threat match over the title.

Earlier at All In, Athena won the women’s Casino Gauntlet match, setting up a future clash with Storm over the Women’s Championship.
