Mercedes Mone, AEW National Title, Full Gear, Honor Club, Kelani Jordan, NXT, Marko Stunt, Ridge Holland – Thursday’s Wrestling News

Mercedes Mone

Mercedes Mone will make her House of Glory debut at HOG x Big Event: Superclash on 11/15.

Tony Khan announced before Dynamite that AEW is launching a new National Title. The gimmick that allegedly separates this title from all of the rest is that AEW wrestlers will be defending it outside of AEW in promotions like New Japan Pro Wrestling. Time will tell. The first champion will be crowned in a Casino Gauntlet match at Full Gear on November 22nd.
