At AEW All In: Texas, anticipation is high as ‘Timeless’ Toni Storm faces Mercedes Mone with her Women’s World Championship at stake, sparking speculation over a stunning betrayal that could impact the title outcome. The focus remains on the Toni Storm possible betrayal and title loss at AEW All In, with storylines pointing toward dramatic developments inside the squared circle.
Betrayal Rumors Surface Ahead of AEW All In Title Match
The matchup between Storm and Mone is being billed as one of the most significant dream clashes in recent professional wrestling history, taking place in Texas and capturing the imagination of fans worldwide. Toni Storm, referred to as The Hollywood Starlet, will risk her prized championship, while the prospect of a shock finish has been hinted at by many observers.
Mina Shirakawa, who recently joined AEW after her own attempts to dethrone Storm fell short at Double or Nothing, has remained aligned with Storm on television. Their partnership seemed steady despite Shirakawa’s previous defeats, but that may be about to change. Reports suggest that Shirakawa, frustrated by her inability to win important matches against Storm, might take matters into her own hands during the high-stakes contest in Texas.
In what could be a turning point, speculation swirls that Shirakawa may interfere behind the referee‘s back, attacking Storm out of pent-up frustration and paving the way for Mercedes Mone to seize the gold and claim her sixth championship. Such a twist would leave the audience in shock and bring about a new chapter in AEW Women’s World Title history.

New Rivalries and Opportunities in AEW’s Women’s Division
If Shirakawa does betray Toni Storm, this act could ignite a heated rivalry between the two, adding fuel to ongoing storylines and potentially reshaping the landscape of the division. The fallout might result in rising talents receiving opportunities to challenge the dominant new champion, Mercedes Mone, offering fresh matchups and unpredictable narratives for the audience.
The embrace of such drama continues to keep AEW fans engaged, and the possibility of unexpected alliances and betrayals highlights the intense emotional stakes at play for both superstars and their supporters.
Wrestlers Set Sights on Mercedes Mone as a Dream Opponent
Outside of the brewing drama, the presence of Mercedes Mone in AEW has inspired a new generation of hopeful competitors. One rising star, known in WWE NXT as Cora Jade and now performing as Elayna Black, has openly spoken about her admiration for Mone and her desire to face her on a big stage. While speaking to Chris Van Vliet, Elayna Black outlined her personal connection with Mone and Bayley, both of whom she considers favorites from the legendary Horsewomen group.
“That’s my current dream match. I feel like her and Bayley were my favorites out of the four Horsewomen. I loved all of them, but I feel like I really, really looked up to them two specifically. I feel like I just felt the most connected to them two because Mercedes was always writing in her notebook too. And I feel like I look at her and see aspects of myself too. So to be able to wrestle her now, where we both have had our time in WWE and we’re both doing our own thing now and doing whatever we want creatively, I feel like that is the ultimate dream match.”
—Elayna Black, Pro Wrestler
The chance for this dream showdown could soon become reality. Should Mercedes Mone succeed in dethroning Toni Storm at AEW All In: Texas, and if Elayna Black joins the AEW roster, one of the most awaited contests in contemporary wrestling could take place in AEW, further raising the profile of the women’s division.
With the wrestling world watching closely, the outcome of Toni Storm’s title defense, the possible betrayal by Mina Shirakawa, and the ambitions of stars like Mercedes Mone and Elayna Black reinforce that AEW remains at the forefront of professional wrestling’s most emotional and unpredictable storylines.
