AEW Mercedes Mone has reacted to a message from Anthony Bowens after her appearance at All In saw her deliver a familiar gesture.
In the capture, which can be seen below, Mone appears to be throwing up the “scissor me, daddy” sign from her vantage point at the iconic venue.
This would catch the attention of Bowens, who would tweet:
“Oh btw I saw you throwing up those scissors @MercedesVarnado 👀✂️
“EVERYONE LOVES THE ACCLAIMED
“#AEWAllIn”
Mone would reply to the tweet with some emojis of her own, tweeting:
“✌🏾👅
“😍”
At AEW All In, Billy Gunn and The Acclaimed (Anthony Bowens & Max Caster) defeated House of Black (Malakai Black, Buddy Matthews, & Brody King) to become AEW World Trios Champions.
In the post-show media scrum, Tony Khan spoke about the appearance of Mone, saying:
“She’s not cleared, Mercedes Mone.
“I think it was great to have her here, she last competed for New Japan Pro-Wrestling so I thought it would be excellent to have one of the top international stars in all of pro-wrestling here, and the last time we saw Mercedes Mone compete, she was actually competing against our own Willow Nightingale.
“There’s a lot of exciting international pro-wrestling and I thought it would be great to have her here to see all the matches, including the AEW Women’s World Championship.
“But she’s not cleared since her injury. I just thought it’d be good to have her take in the show.
“Definitely a lot of potential things could happen there, and I know New Japan Pro-Wrestling’s had great experiences working with her, and I thought it would be great, given that she’s not cleared, but wanted to take in the biggest paid pro-wrestling crowd of all time and see what AEW’s all about. I thought it would be good for her to be here.
“But obviously she’s not wrestling or cleared or doing anything anytime soon, but great to have the top international stars at a top international show.”

Mone commented about her appearance at the London, England pay-per-view with a quote in dedication to Bray Wyatt and Hana Kimura.
The NJPW star has reportedly been in conversation with AEW about a possible future appearance.
