Mercedes Mone spent the big bucks for AEW All In.
Mone was highlighted in a big way at the event, as she defeated Britt Baker to retain her TBS Championship. This was Mone's sixth defense of the title that she won back at the Double Or Nothing pay-per-view in May.
During the latest edition of her Mone Mag newsletter, 'The C.E.O' stated that she spent over $10K on her outfit for the event.
$10,000 Ring Attire
My hair wasn't the only thing that cost a pretty penny. My robe, which was so beautiful, grand, and regal, was also my most expensive in my 14 years of wrestling. The whole outfit, in total, cost me over $10,000, All In (no pun intended).
Spending on Ring Costumes
As far as wrestlers investing so much money into their attire, it really depends on where they're at in their career. If you're not there salary wise, you try to find cheaper ways to look your best and it's for sure possible. I did. When it comes to the biggest events, you invest all that you can. These stages are huge and these moments last forever so you want to put your best foot forward. It doesn't always come down to money. It comes down to investing the time, being creative and resourceful. Doing so elevates standards and elevates your character. I feel it's all worth it, and in the end, it does pay off. I hope to teach this sentiment to some of the younger girls on our roster.
Elsewhere in the newsletter, Mone commented on the mixed reactions to her match with Baker at All In. Check out her full comments on the matter here.
