TBS Champion Mercedes Moné confirmed her relationship with fellow All Elite Wrestling star The Beast Mortos to TMZ Sports on Tuesday (June 17), describing it as "a real beauty and the beast situation."
The confirmation came after Mortos, a masked luchador, shared a photo of himself with a cow emoji over his face alongside Moné on his Instagram story with the caption, "en tus brazos encuentro paz," which translates to "In your arms I find peace." Moné also shared a post on her X account referencing the couple's hard launch and Mortos recently announcing that he would officially soon become a lawyer.
"I can’t wait to sue all of you! rawwwwrrrrrr," Moné wrote ahead of AEW's Grand Slam Mexico edition of its flagship show Dynamite airing Wednesday (June 18) night.
It's unclear when the couple got together, though their announcement comes about a year after Moné publicly announced her divorce from her ex-husband, Sarath Ton, following an eight-year marriage, having later revealed that they had been separated for two years. Moné, who was a five-time world champion during her tenure in WWE under the moniker 'Sasha Banks,' made her AEW debut in March 2024 and is the current TBS Champion, as well as the titleholder for various other promotions, and will face AEW Women's World Champion 'Timeless' Toni Storm in a title match at All In: Texas on July 12.
