For those asking why Mercedes Mone didn't get into the ring or appear beyond being shown in close-ups sitting in the crowd, we are told that backstage, she was wearing a heavy walking boot and that she was specifically shot in the crowd sitting to not show that.
The expectation backstage is that when she's cleared, she will be coming in for appearances and likely would have debuted at the TD Garden Blood and Guts episode of Dynamite in her hometown of Boston, MA had she not gotten injured wrestling for New Japan Pro Wrestling just prior to that.
