Mercedes Moné has suffered a second title loss within days, further extending a troubling downward trend in her recent career. On Sunday, she relinquished the BestYa Wrestling Women’s Championship to Swan during the Moné Mayhem event in Bagnolo Cremasco, Italy, coming less than two days after losing the CMLL World Women’s Championship to Persephone at Arena Mexico on Friday night. This back-to-back loss marks the continuation of a difficult stretch for Moné, who has now lost three consecutive championships in as many matches.
Recent Title Losses Highlight a Persistent Struggle
Moné’s difficulties with championship defenses trace back to late last year. Since December 17, when she was defeated by Alex Windsor for the RevPro Undisputed British Women’s Championship at an AEW Collision taping in Manchester, she has dropped five straight title-related matches. The pattern did not improve moving forward, as she and Athena were defeated by The Babes of Wrath in a bid for the AEW Women’s World Tag Team Championships at AEW World’s End.
Shortly after, Moné also lost the TBS Championship to Willow Nightingale at the AEW New Year’s Smash event, showing that her slide in title contests has been both consistent and recent.
Upcoming Schedule Demonstrates Ongoing International Activity
Despite this unsettled period, Moné remains an active competitor on the global wrestling stage. She is scheduled to appear in France at Banger Zone Wrestling on March 14, followed by a return to RevPro events on March 21. Her itinerary then takes her to Canada, where she will compete at Winnipeg Pro Wrestling on March 31, the day before AEW’s Dynamite broadcast in the same city.

Implications for Moné’s Career and Future Prospects
Mercedes Moné’s recent streak of title losses puts her at a critical crossroads as she continues to compete internationally. This period of setbacks may affect her momentum, but her active schedule in Europe and Canada suggests she is seeking new opportunities to reverse the slide. How she responds to these challenges could redefine her standing in the wrestling community moving forward, particularly with significant events looming such as AEW Dynamite in Winnipeg. Observers remain attentive to whether Moné can reclaim championship success or if this represents a broader shift in her competitive trajectory.
