Mercedes Moné On WWE: Something About The Way We Were Talked To :: Wrestle Zone
Sasha Banks was one of the most beloved and successful characters in WWE history is now a champion in AEW. She spoke about why she departed the more well-known brand, and it clearly seems to be because she felt she wasn't being shown the basic levels of respect anyone deserves from their employer. WZ transcribed her words from a YT video with Hot 97.
“There’s so many reasonings,” Mercedes Moné said. “The biggest thing was just listening to my heart and my soul. Something didn’t feel right that day, how we were talked to didn’t settle in my heart, and I just instantly knew, if I wasn’t gonna take control of my life right here and now, then I was never going to be happy there by having someone talk to me the way that they do or feeling like you just don’t belong. Like okay, I’ve been doing this for 14 years, and to feel like this, this low, my soul is like no, get up, go. It was the hardest decision.

Cody Rhodes Appears In Ad For Popular Amazon Prime Show :: Wrestling, Inc.
Crossover coming??
The champion teamed up with Prime to appear in an advertisement for the show, which was posted on Instagram on Tuesday. In between clips of the first five episodes of the new season of the show, sans gratuitous amounts of gore and violence, Rhodes is seen facing away from the camera, dressed in an American flag cape.
"So, Homelander. What do you want to talk about?" Rhodes says in the clip when he turns around, before his eyes flash red, like Homelander's laser vision he often uses in the show to take down his enemies.
Cody Rhodes: Rock should have known I wouldn’t be cool with him taking my WrestleMania spot :: CageSide Seats
Wednesday will be the premiere of the Behind the Scenes look at Wrestlemania 40. CSS transcribed a revealing interview on what Rhodes was feeling when he learned he was being sidelined so The Rock could return to the main stage.
“Where we would butt heads is in the idea that you could just come back in the midst of a story that was taking place, and just because you’re The Rock, you can step into the starting lineup and take WrestleMania for yourself. And a lot of people will say, ‘He’s The Rock, he can do whatever he wants.’ I even saw this fun podcast with two wrestling heads just talking back and forth, and they had said, ‘I’m sure Cody’s fine stepping aside for WrestleMania and then doing it later in the year.’
“And in my mind I’m thinking, ‘That’s insane.’ That’s the Super Bowl for what we do. To get to the Sunday, the last day of WrestleMania, the last match, is our literal Super Bowl... The idea that somebody thought I would just be cool with it is — They don’t know me. That’s nonsense. I worked my whole life for this.
“Rock should know I wouldn’t be cool with it.
