The rumor mill is buzzing with speculations surrounding the potential return of Mercedes Mone better known to the WWE Universe as “The Boss” Sasha Banks. Recent reports indicate that the initial plans between All Elite Wrestling (AEW) and Mone have hit a roadblock igniting fervent discussions about her potential comeback to WWE.

The anticipation around Mone’s next career move has reached new heights and industry insiders including former WCW President Eric Bischoff have weighed in on the possibilities. Bischoff known for his analytical approach sees a unique opportunity for Mone especially with Charlotte Flair sidelined due to a series of knee injuries.

Bischoff remarked, “She’s got a great relationship. She has an established market value. There’s anticipation, she’s obviously got a fan base. Oh, and Charlotte’s down for a while. That creates, oh what’s it called – opportunity.

Mercedes Mone’s potential WWE return amidst Charlotte Flair’s absence

The timing of Mone’s potential return aligns with Charlotte Flair’s absence and Bischoff emphasizes the concept of opportunity in the world of professional wrestling. Mone a seasoned performer with a dedicated fan following holds significant leverage in her career decisions.

If Sasha Banks wants [or] Mercedes wants to just go do her thing somewhere and ride it out at AEW until whatever happens, happens, be a part of a big resurgence perhaps, or be on the ship when it goes down, that would be a really bad choice. There’s too much money on the table. She’s too smart to make not smart decisions,” Bischoff added.

Bischoff’s insights shed light on the strategic considerations that Mone might be evaluating in this pivotal moment of her career. With Charlotte Flair’s absence creating a void in the women’s division WWE could be keen to bring back a proven star like Mone to maintain the momentum.

It’s worth noting that Mone’s asking price reportedly surpasses the recent deal signed by Charlotte Flair who is now considered one of the highest-paid women in WWE history. Mone’s financial expectations reflect not only her value in the industry but also the shifting landscape where top-tier talent commands lucrative contracts.
