Mercedes Mone Quits WWE Return Talks

Mercedes Mone is leaving WWE in May 2022, and it looks like she’ll be gone for even longer.

There were hopes that Sasha Banks might make a return to WWE, but at this point it looks like that’s not the case.

We previously reported that things could change in negotiations between Mercedes Mone and companies across the professional wrestling world.

There are a lot of big events where she could come and create a big buzz.

Sean Sapp reports from behind the Fightful paywall that WWE and Sasha Banks are not in talks about a return.

“Top free agent Mercedes Mone aka Sasha Banks and WWE had been engaged in conversations to possibly bring her back to the company.

However, WWE sources stated to Fightful Friday night that the two sides are no longer in active negotiations regarding a return.

The two sides had recently been engaged in conversations about a return.

We’re told the dialogue was friendly, the back and forth failed to progress, and WWE sources claim that their side walked as a result of it. ”

It was also noted that, “Another source within the company believed that she would end up appearing elsewhere imminently, but didn’t state where. AEW has their Worlds End Show Saturday, NJPW has Wrestle Kingdom next week, and TNA Wrestling is rebranding for Hard to Kill in two weeks.”

WWE and Mercedes Mone are said to have had good discussions, but no resolution has been reached at this time.

Let’s see if things change for Mercedes Mone and WWE.
In the end, a deal for CM Punk to return to WWE wasn’t finalized until a few days before Survivor Series.
