Mercedes Mone has high praise for Athena.
After years of chatter and anticipation, Mone and Athena will finally meet in a singles match at AEW Dynamite Spring Breakthru. The stakes will be high for both women, as the contest will be a semi-final match in the Women's Owen Hart Cup Tournament.
While chatting on the Toucher & Hardy show, Mone praised Athena, calling her one of the greatest female wrestlers of all time.
“I’m going to be performing and wrestling against Athena, who is the longest reigning Ring Of Honor champion of all time, she’s held this title for over 800 days. Insane. She is one of the greatest women’s wrestlers of all time, so I have goosebumps for tomorrow, it’s been one of my dream matches. Before I even made it to WWE, I had my eyes on Athena, so this is something I’m really excited for.”
