In the latest edition of her Mone Mag, Mercedes Mone confirmed PWInsider.com's report that she and hip hop star Megan Thee Stallion were slated to work together in AEW but after Mone mentioned the collaboration publicly, WWE inked a deal to use one of Stallion's songs as the new theme for Friday Night Smackdown.
Mone wrote:
"Sports Illustrated and other sources reported on conversations between my advocate Kev, and Meg's manager, Mike B., regarding her and me doing stuff at AEW. It's true. A few weeks ago in an interview, I made the mistake of teasing the idea, which made headlines. More recently, it was announced that Meg would be part of the new Smackdown theme. It could all be a coincidence, of course. But then, they don't call me the blueprint for nothing. In hindsight, I should have kept my mouth shut about it but all you can do is live and learn. I'm flattered and honored in a way, as it proves we are clearly on the right path. While I would have loved to work with Meg and would have loved to see her work with our brand, I'm still happy for her. She's a great person and talent who will get exposure to the vast wrestling audience. Trust in this, AEW and Team Moné have a lot more brewing so it's all good. You all will just have to wait this time to hear about it."
