“Stfu”: Mercedes Mone & Tony Khan Forced to Take Drastic Social Media Step After Heavy Criticism Amid WWE Return Rumors

While some fans supported Mercedes Mone‘s AEW debut in March 2024, others did not hold the same reverence for her entry. Since her introduction to the new workplace, the wrestling talent has received a lot of criticism for her mic skills. She is yet to prove herself in the ring at AEW Double or Nothing, but her promo delivery skills have invited the ire of the wrestling faithful.

Mone recently uploaded one of her recent kayfabe interviews on Instagram in collaboration with AEW’s official page. The social media move backfired unlike they could have prepared for. As a result, both Mone and Tony Khan had to take a major step to prevent trolling in the comments.

Fans will watch Sasha Banks wrestle against Willow Nightingale at AEW Double or Nothing 2024 on May 25th for the TBS Championship. There is a chance that she may secure a victory because of how big of a deal her debut was. In an interview on AEW TV regarding the upcoming match, the AEW star delivered her dialogues in a way that fans didn’t develop a liking for. Several mean comments started to roll in. As a result, both Tony Khan’s AEW and Mercedes Mone had to limit the comments on the Instagram reel as collaborators on the post.

With this feature on, fans wouldn’t be able to comment anymore. This was a big step because it would hinder the public reach for both of the accounts. However, by the time they could limit the comments, there were already various reactions from fans hating the former WWE star. You may want to explore what these online fans had to say about the talent that they ultimately had to limit the comments.

Mercedes Mone receives flak from the wrestling community for her promo skills

While some were happy seeing the former IWGP Champion on their screens delivering the promo, others were not satisfied with Mone’s skills on the mic. As a result, we were able to gather some reactions that represented the fan sentiment in the best way possible.

After inserting various laughing emojis, a fan wrote, “How come in WWE the mic skills were decent or whatever?!?! Even some of her clips in Japan was aight!! Keep her away from the mic!!!!!”

Jade Cargill gets picked over the ex-NJPW star: “They shoulda kept Jade rather than bringing in this cancer.”

Someone roasted Mercedes Mone using an out-of-context example that may fit the situation if you think of the same POV: “Stop putting a mic in front of her. It’s like nails on a chalkboard.”

Delivery of a pun to explain the sentiment, “CE… No she’s boring now!!! 😂😂😂”

An internet user paid attention to what the background noise at the show was saying and claimed, “Listen to the Stfu chants.”

Despite having love for Sasha Banks, this fan couldn’t find a liking to this promo: “Gees this is so bad and I love Sasha 😭”
