Since debuting in AEW in March 2024, Mercedes Mon has built an impressive undefeated streak, holding a 15-0 record and she holds four titles at the same time, which is obviously a huge achievement.
While speaking onBusted Open Radio, Ric Flair believes that AEW is not the best long-term fit for Mercedes Mone, despite her impressive undefeated streak. Flair feels she lacks strong competition in AEW and explained that while AEW has talented wrestlers, there is a difference between being good and being truly great.
