Mercedes began her AEW tenure by thanking the fans for supporting her over the last two years following her WWE walkout. She promises to make some new memories, adding that wrestling saved and changed her life. “Wrestling has given me hopes, a place to dream.”
Mercedes later states that AEW is the place to be and that she cannot wait to tear it up with the locker room. She singles out Willow, promising that she will get her revenge for injuring her last year.
