11/14/2024 05:40 PM
New Japan STRONG Women’s Champion Mercedes Moné recently made an unannounced appearance at NJPW Fighting Spirit Unleashed.
In the latest issue of the MonéMag, Mercedes Moné wrote about appearing in Lowell, MA for Fighting Spirit Unleashed and what that city means to her overall growth as a wrestler.
“Truth be told, Lowell has a special place in my heart,” Mercedes Moné wrote. “It's where my wrestling journey really kicked off. This town was home to Chaotic Wrestling, the organization that helped shape me into the wrestler I am today. Ironically, it was the very same ring I wrestled in! The amount of gratitude I have for the city, that time and those people can’t even be described.
“When you are the highest-paid female in our sport, you never forget where you came from or who helped get you there – or at least you shouldn’t. So, you know damn well that if I can make my schedule work to help support those who helped me get where I am today, I always and forever will. I asked Rocky if I could make a surprise appearance, and luckily, he was thrilled to have me join!
Letting the moment sink in
“As I got ready to make my entrance, I couldn't help but think back to my younger self—the girl with dreams of becoming the best wrestler in the world. Fast forward 14 years, and here I am at NJPW with the TBS Women’s Championship in my hands. I took a moment to let it all sink in. When I finally stepped out, the crowd went wild, cheering for their CEO. The energy was just incredible.”
