Billie Starkz is gearing up for the biggest match of her career against AEW TBS Champion Mercedes Mon on AEW Dynamite, and shes making it personal.
Taking to X, Starkz reflected on a decade-old moment with Mon and Bayley thats now coming full circle.
10 years ago I hit @MercedesVarnado because Bayley told me to at a show and my dad yelled at me until he realized I wasnt just swinging to swing. This time I swing first for Athena and I swing hard for Bayley and I walk out TBS Champion for ME!
The post referenced an old show where Bayley encouraged Starkz to take a shot at Mon, setting the stage for this long-awaited showdown. Starkz also resurfaced footage of herself appearing in the video package for Bayley and Mons NXT TakeOver: Respect Iron Woman Match. Now, shes out to make her own history by dethroning Mon and claiming the TBS Championship.
Bayley, never one to stay quiet, wasted no time responding to Starkzs post with a simple but effective message: Beat her ass for me.
With Mon set to defend her title tonight and another championship defense lined up against Kanji at RevPro High Stakes next month, shes got a lot on her plate. But if Starkz has her way, Mon might not even make it to April still holding gold.
Will Billie Starkz pull off the upset and bring home the TBS Championship, or will Mercedes Mon continue her reign? Please share your thoughts and feedback in the comment section below.
