Mercedes Mone triumphs and secures title chance at All In!

Mercedes Mone won the 2025 Women’s Owen Hart Foundation Tournament on May 26, 2025. In an exciting opening match at AEW Double Or Nothing, Mone defeated former AEW Women's World Champion Jamie Hayter. The fight was a spectacle marked by both exciting twists and critical moments.

Mone showed her best side by facing several critical situations in the match. Ultimately, she won the fight with a Hammerlock Small Package for the pinfall. With this win, Mone now has the opportunity to challenge for the prestigious AEW Women's World Championship at All In: Texas. This could prove to be a significant step in her career as she remains undefeated in singles matches since her debut in AEW last year.

The path to the final

In the run-up to the tournament, Mone showed impressive performances. She defeated Julia Hart in the first round and continued her rise in the tournament with a win over Athena in the semifinals. Jamie Hayter was also convincing: she initially won her fight against Billie Starkz and defeated Kris Statlander in the semifinals. Hayter, who returned after over a year out due to injury, was the AEW Women's Champion for many months and is considered one of the most talented wrestlers in the league.

The tournament, in which numerous current and former champions took part, was of great importance for both opponents. Mone and Hayter are prominent names on the AEW roster and their matches generated high expectations. After the win, Mone celebrated her success by quickly disappearing from the ring while Hayter faced her new challenge against one of the best wrestlers in the league.

The title fight is imminent

With her new position, Mone could face the current title holder, "Timeless" Toni Storm, who has held the title since February 15, 2025, in the near future. Toni Storm has won the AEW Women's World Championship four times in her career and is therefore considered the record winner. The AEW Women's World Championship was first introduced on June 18, 2019 and has been a core element of All Elite Wrestling's competition ever since.

A potential title defense could prove exciting as both Mone and Hayter work to solidify their positions in the AEW rankings. Fans can look forward to an exciting match-up at the upcoming All In: Texas event, which could culminate in Mone's victory in the Owen Hart Tournament.

Mercedes Mone's recent accomplishments are shedding new light on the women's division within AEW and increasing anticipation for future competition. The story is far from over, and the upcoming fights will show where Mone's path in AEW takes her.
