Swan Snaps Mercedes Moné’s Streak in BestYa Win

Mercedes Moné faced another championship loss over the weekend, dropping the BestYa Wrestling Women’s Championship to Swan at the Moné Mayhem event in Italy. This came just one day after Moné lost the CMLL Women’s Championship to Persephone at Arena Mexico. Moné originally captured the BestYa title from Diana Strong in July 2025 and successfully defended it once against Queen Maya on November 9.

A Series of Championship Setbacks Since 2025

The recent defeats mark Moné’s sixth title loss since 2025. Prior to the weekend, she lost the NJPW STRONG Women’s Championship to AZM on May 9, the ROH Women’s World Television Championship to Red Velvet on December 5, the RevPro Undisputed British Women’s Championship to Alex Windsor on December 20, and the AEW TBS Championship to Willow Nightingale on December 31.

Upcoming Appearances and Remaining Titles

Moné is scheduled to continue competing in Europe, with appearances booked for Banger Zone Wrestling in France on March 14 and RevPro on March 21. She will then return to North America for Winnipeg Pro Wrestling on March 31, coinciding with AEW Dynamite’s event in the city the following night. Despite recent losses, Moné still holds several championships, including the APAC Women’s Championship, WPW Women’s Championship, BODYSLAM Women’s Championship, DW Women’s Championship, PTW Women’s Championship, and EWA Women’s Championship, as noted by Cagematch.

Impact on Mercedes Moné’s Career Trajectory

The multiple title losses across prominent wrestling promotions highlight a challenging period for Mercedes Moné in maintaining championship status. Her ongoing presence in both European and North American circuits suggests she remains a key competitor with opportunities to regain prominence. Observers will be watching how Moné rebounds from this stretch of defeats and whether she can reclaim or secure new championships in the coming months.
