Jeff Hardy Says Planned Autobiography Will Deal With Years Of Alocholism

Matt and Jeff Hardy’s lives and careers will be the subject of a pair of wrestling autobiographies, the legendary brothers have shared. Speaking to The Wrestling History Channel, Matt shared that both men could write individual autobiographies given all that has happened in and out of the ring.

Jeff then shared that he has already began working on his book. Jeff won’t hold back, as he shared that his book will deal with his past alcoholism head on.

“I got four years’ worth of journaling throughout my alcoholism. So, I’ve already started trying to go back to each page and write one, but it’s a huge project. I might end up needing a little help.”

These books won’t be the first time that fans will get to read about the lives of Matt and Jeff Hardy. In 2003, the pair penned ‘Exist 2 Inspire,’ while both were with WWE. Given the date, the book would miss several key moments of the pair’s lives, including their runs in TNA Wrestling, WWE return in 2017, and issues with the law.

Currently, Matt and Jeff are competing in TNA, where they hold the TNA World Tag Team Titles. The duo also hold the 4th Rope Wrestling Tag Team Titles, the NXT Tag Team Titles, and most recently won tag gold for House of Glory Wrestling. The pair will battle Team 3D (Bully Ray & Devon) at TNA Bound for Glory 2025.

With a career most tag teams could only dream of, the lives of Matt and Jeff will make for a thrilling read. Time will tell if these ideas ever make it to bookshelves, but Jeff is already working on making his book a reality.

Stevie Turner Is Excited To Wrestle Again After WWE Departure

Stevie Turner is excited to get back in the ring now that her tenure with WWE has come to an end. On X, Turner shared her excitement.

Turner had just 52 matches during her tenure with WWE, a run that began upon her signing in March 2021. Her post hints at frustrations over feeling underutilized as an in-ring talent within the promotion. Turner’s most recent match was in February 2025, where she was on the losing end of a tag-team match at an NXT live event.

In March 2025, Turner was announced as the General Manager of Evolve, though the English performer later dubbed herself as Evolve’s Prime Minister. This role would have seemingly ended Turner’s in-ring career with WWE, in favor of being an on-screen authority figure.

Before WWE, Turner wrestled on the UK independent scene as Bobbi Tyler and became a six-time champion across various promotions. She also wrestled for STARDOM, where she was part of the Tokyo Cyber Squad.

Now, Turner/Tyler is ready to re-establish herself as an in-ring threat. Her post shares how being in WWE isn’t always fulfilling for those who want to wrestle.

Ash By Elegance Says She’s Retired After Vacating TNA Knockouts Title

Ash By Elegance’s time in the ring has seemingly come to an end, the former TNA Knockouts Champion has revealed. During a virtual signing for RDP Promotions, Ash showed off one of the shirts she was selling and revealed the significance of the item.

“$30 for this top. It is worn with me and Paige VanZant (in a photoshoot), but also, this is the shirt I retired in. It’s $30. My retirement t-shirt.”

Later on, Ash shared that TNA has been supporting her and has allowed her the opportunity to do things backstage. Ash told fans to “never say never” to an in-ring return, but for now, there’s no plans for her to get back in the squared circle.

Ash, also known to WWE fans as Dana Brooke, vacated the TNA Knockouts Title at Victory Road, mere weeks after winning the gold. At the time, Ash didn’t give a specific reason for her decision, instead ating that “I am no longer able to compete.”

Ash won the title from NXT’s Jacy Jayne at WWE Heatwave in a triple threat match which included Masha Slamovich. TNA’s Tommy Dreamer has confirmed that Ash’s situation is not a ‘work’ but instead a very unfortunate moment for all informed.

To this day, it remains unclear as to what exactly derailed Ash By Elegance’s in-ring career. For now, Elegance’s time in the ring is in the past.

Fans Rally For Edge After John Cena’s Win At Crown Jewel: Perth

The WWE Universe made their voices heard loud and clear following John Cena’s victory at WWE Crown Jewel: Perth. During the post-show event, the fans chanted “We want Edge,” making clear who they want Cena to face next. Not satisfied with just the chant, the crowd in Australia sang Metalingus, the theme song used by the Rated-R Superstar.

These chants were mostly ignored by Paul ‘Triple H’ Levesque, who spoke about the great experience WWE has had in Australia for Crown Jewel. While Levesque eventually highlighted the fans singing, saying the crowd had been “doing this all night long,” he did not make reference to the message the fans were sending.

Edge, aka AEW’s Adam Copeland, is considered by many to be Cena’s greatest rival. In 2006, Edge ended Cena’s first reign as WWE Champion and John would repay the favor mere weeks later.

Copeland recently shared that he’d be leaving AEW programming, and was unclear when, if ever, he would return. While some quickly saw this as a sign of a WWE return for a Cena match, it has since been reported that this is not the case.

John Cena has just four appearances left in his WWE farewell tour, a run that has seen him face rivals like Randy Orton, Brock Lesnar, and AJ Styles. And while a Cena-Edge match may never happen again, fans in Australia remain hopeful.

Backstage News On Latest WWE Talent Releases

A new report from Fightful Select has provided an update on the recent WWE developmental talent releases that took place on Friday, October 10. According to the report, the round of cuts has now “effectively concluded,” with the total number of departures being “around a dozen.”

The list of released talent includes a mix of outright releases, contracts that were not renewed, and some talent who reportedly passed on new deals offered to them. The most prominent name among those released was the former NXT North American Champion, Wes Lee. According to WWE sources cited in the report, the reason given for this round of releases was a “natural progression of cycling out developmental talent.”

The report also made it clear that despite these departures, WWE is still actively recruiting new talent to bring into its developmental system at the Performance Center, indicating a continuous process of refreshing the roster. The release of Wes Lee is the most surprising of the group. He was a highly popular and decorated champion in NXT, known for his exciting in-ring style.

In addition to his lengthy reign as the NXT North American Champion, he was also a multi-time NXT Tag Team Champion as part of the team MSK. His departure marks a significant change for the NXT landscape. You can see the full list here.

Watch: US National Anthem Booed Again At Crown Jewel

WWE presented a highly praised PPV in Crown Jewel Perth this Saturday, but the start of the show did not go as the officials may have expected.

The latest WWE PLE opened with Sophie Foster signing the national anthems of both US and Australia. While the crowd sang along with the Australian anthem, the US national anthem was booed by the people in the arena:

This isn’t the first time an international crowd has reacted negatively to the US anthem. Amid tensions with the US over trade policies, the Canadian crowd had also booed their National Anthem during the Elimination Chamber event from Toronto earlier this year.

WWE Crown Jewel Results

Thankfully for the company, the rest of the show went much better than this opening sequence. Bronson Reed picked up a big win over Roman Reigns in the opening match of the night, and then Stephanie Vaquer defeated Tiffany Stratton to become the new Women’s Crown Jewel champion.

Potentially the best match of the night was the encounter between John Cena and AJ Styles. The old rivals paid tribute to many talents from their past before Cena picked up the victory with a Tombstone and AA.

After this, Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY defeat Asuka & Kairi Sane and Seth Rollins went on to pick up the victory over Cody Rhodes in the main event. This marks the first time Rollins has defeated Rhodes in singles action.

The Hardy Boyz’s TNA Contracts Set To Expire Soon

A new report from Fightful Select has revealed that TNA Wrestling could be on the verge of a significant roster shakeup, as the contracts for several key stars, including the legendary Hardy Boyz, are reportedly set to expire soon. According to the report, Matt and Jeff Hardy re-signed with TNA in November 2024 on one-year deals, which means their current contracts are set to expire next month unless a new extension has been quietly reached.

The timing of the news is particularly dramatic, as it comes just one day before The Hardys are scheduled to compete in one of the biggest matches of the year at the Bound For Glory pay-per-view. The partnership between TNA and The Hardys has been a major success since their return, with the duo experiencing a massive career resurgence that has seen them capture not only the TNA World Tag Team Championships but also the NXT and House of Glory Tag Team Championships. According to sources within TNA cited by Fightful, the relationship has been a positive one for both sides.

“The deal has been mutually beneficial and a lot of positive has emerged from it. The Hardys have regularly stayed hours after TNA shows to fulfill heavily in-demand meet and greets.”

Despite the positive relationship, the report states that while the company is hopeful, they are not certain that the legendary team will re-sign. The uncertainty extends beyond The Hardys. The same report notes that “no less than a dozen” other TNA contracts are also scheduled to expire between now and the end of the year, including those of recent signees The IInspiration and Cedric Alexander.

A Love Letter To Pro Wrestling: Triple H Reacts To Incredible John Cena vs AJ Styles Match At Crown Jewel

Triple H hopes people appreciate the legends while they’re still here.

The WWE Chief Content Officer appeared on the Crown Jewel post-show. During the appearance, he was asked about his thoughts on the match between John Cena and AJ Styles at the PPV.

The Game mentioned how it was a love letter to professional wrestling and explained that people should appreciate it while they still have it: 

“It was incredible. Just, you know, you hear this sometimes said in this business, it was a love letter to professional wrestling. I really believe that. Those [are] two of the most decorated performers, two of the greatest performers of a generation. Both kind of coming to the end now, in a way.

I feel like there’s a part of me at the end of this thing was like ‘I hope people appreciate this while they still have it.’ But, you know, for both of them to go out there, perform at this level, do what they did and just put on a massive tribute to what we all love to do, get to do, or get to watch, it was just incredible.”

John Cena has only four more appearances left in his retirement tour after the Crown Jewel PPV. Survivor Series 2025 will be his last PLE appearance, followed by his retirement match at Saturday Night’s Main Event in December.

AJ Styles on the other hand, has not announced a date for his retirement yet. The former TNA Champion, however, has confirmed that he will end his career sometime in 2026. You can check out more about it here.

Stephanie Vaquer Wants To Face Big Name After Crown Jewel Victory

Stephanie Vaquer feels ready for her biggest challenge yet.

The Women’s World Champion made an appearance on the Crown Jewel post-show, after she defeated Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton to become the Crown Jewel Champion at the latest WWE PLE.

During her appearance, Peter Rosenberg asked Vaquer which locker room member she’d like to defend her world title against next. Stephanie first claimed that she is ready for any and all competitors.

The fans then started chanting the name of AJ Lee, but La Primera went in a different direction, saying that she would like to face The Mami in a match if possible:

“I don’t know if you’re happy with that, but Rhea Ripley. She’s an amazing wrestler. She’s an amazing person too, and she had a really good experience here, so I really want to face Rhea Ripley, yes.”

The former Judgment Day star was in action on the PPV as well. The Australian star teamed up with IYO SKY to defeat the duo of Asuka and Kairi Sane, collectively known as The Kabuki Warriors, at the show.

With WWE pushing Vaquer as the next face of the Women’s division, an encounter between her and Ripley seems inevitable. Though she is still new to the main roster and it’s likely that officials will hold off this feud for a later date.

The Undertaker Reacts To Crown Jewel Tribute From John Cena

The Undertaker felt the same way about the John Cena and AJ Styles match at Crown Jewel: Perth event as the fans.

The two arch rivals came face to face one last time at the Australian PPV and once again showed why they are considered two of the greatest stars of the business.

Both Cena and Styles continued the tradition of paying tribute to their old rivals with names such as Bray Wyatt, Randy Orton, Shawn Michaels, Samoa Joe, Sting, and many more being honoured during the show.

The one name that stood out more than the others was that of The Undertaker. Not only did John Cena perform a chokeslam during the bout, but he also used the Tombstone Piledriver before hitting Styles with an AA for the win.

The Undertaker Reacts

The Phenom reacted to this tribute on Twitter not long after the match, dubbing the encounter of John Cena and AJ Styles as a masterclass and a beautiful tribute to wrestling:

John Cena has a total of four appearances and only one more PPV match left in his retirement run after the Crown Jewel performance.

Reports suggest that his opponent for his last PLE appearance has already been decided. You can check out more about it here.

Seth Rollins Finally Defeats Cody Rhodes At Crown Jewel: Perth

Seth Rollins is the new Crown Jewel Champion.

The Architect went into the latest WWE PLE with a lot of questions. Having never beat Cody Rhodes in singles action, Rollins had a lot to prove in this main event match both to his fans and The Vision faction.

The Heavyweight Champion did not leave any stone unturned in his quest, and he busted out a number of high-risk moves to try and put the WWE Champion away.

When the American Nightmare refused to quit, however, Seth was forced to use the object the whole feud was built around – the Rolex watch gifted to him by Cody after WrestleMania 40.

Seth Rollins had hesitated in using the watch he wore to the ring to his advantage earlier in the match. He finally gave in to the temptation and quietly grabbed it from the ringside.

The World Champion first knocked the referee out with a push and then hit Cody with the watch as the Quarterback went for a Cross-Rhodes. Seth then hit his opponent with not one but two stomps to finally pick up the victory.

Triple H came out to award him the Crown Jewel title as well as the diamond ring, and the show ended with Seth Rollins standing tall with Stephanie Vaquer who won the Women’s Crown Jewel title match earlier in the night.

Watch: John Cena Provides Special Introduction For AJ Styles At Crown Jewel: Perth

John Cena had a phenomenal surprise for AJ Styles tonight.

The two old rivals came face to face one last time at the latest Crown Jewel: Perth event from Australia. The TNA original was the first to enter the arena and the Cenation Leader entered second.

As the ring announcer Alicia Taylor was introducing John Cena, the 17-time world champion handed her a handwritten note and asked her to announce it next.

The note turned out to be a special introduction for AJ Styles, featuring a tribute to his storied career. It included mentions to his time in TNA and NJPW as well as WWE:

“Ladies & Gentleman, The definition of Total Nonstop Action, the Ace and Undisputed Boss of The Bullet Club,

It is our honor as fans, and my honor as an opponent to see if he can beat up John Cena one final time, he is the face that runs the place, The Phenomenal, AJ Styles.”

The two arch-rivals then went on to deliver a classic match. John Cena continued his tradition of paying tribute to his rivals, busting out moves such as Sister Abigail and RKO during the bout.

In the end, Cena delivered a Tombstone Piledriver to Styles and followed it up with a big Attitude Adjustment for the pin. The two wrestling legends shook hands and shared the hug after the match to conclude the whole thing.

Styles now has just four appearances left for WWE as an active talent, and reportedly has a huge opportunity lined up next month. Stay tuned to SEScoops as the John Cena retirement tour nears its final chapter.

Bronson Reed Pins Roman Reigns At Crown Jewel: Perth

A surprising loss for Roman Reigns.

The Tribal Chief opened the 2025 Crown Jewel PPV from Perth, battling against Bronson Reed in an Australian street fight.

The bout saw both the stars using their surroundings to their advantage and using weapons such as tables, chairs and even cricket bats to try and get the upper hand on their opponent.

As expected, Bron Breakker made an appearance towards the ending of the bout, taking out Reigns. The Usos, who had been instructed to stay away from the match by Roman, then came out to help their cousin.

The twin brothers were able to take control of the situation for a while but the Vision eventually got back on top. After taking out the Usos, Bronson Reed brought Reigns back into the ring and he looked to send the Tribal Chief through a table set at the turnbuckle.

Roman tried to fight his opponent and he managed to get free of his hold, only for Jey Uso to inadvertently spear him through the table. Reed then delivered a big Tsunami and pinned the Head of The Table.

Reigns was visibly upset with his cousins after the match and expressed the same to them before leaving disappointed. Jey Uso did not seem to take the criticism lightly, and he was the next to make his exit, leaving Jimmy Uso alone.

This is only the second time Roman Reigns has been pinned in a one-on-one match in the last 5 years, after Cody Rhodes beat him at WrestleMania 40. It’ll be interesting to see what direction he takes to recover from this loss.

Watch: Oba Femi Comes Face To Face With Omos At NXT Event

Two monsters face to face.

NXT presented its latest Live Event from the Masonic Temple in Detroit, Michigan this Friday night. The show featured names such as Trick Williams, Ricky Saints and MCMG in action.

One of the matches on the card saw Oba Femi taking on Je’Von Evans. Femi picked up the victory over the high-flying star. He couldn’t celebrate for long, however, as DarkState attacked the former NXT Champion.

It was Omos who made the save for Oba. After sending DarkState packing, the Nigerian Giant came face-to-face with Oba Femi in a surreal moment. The segment ended with Omos laying out the development star:

The former bodyguard of AJ Styles had last wrestled on WWE TV in April last year. While he had made appearances for NOAH and AAA, Omos had not competed under the WWE banner since then.

He finally made his in-ring return for the company during a similar Live Event on Thursday which also featured an unfortunate injury to a current champion.

It’s unknown what the company is planning for the Nigerian star. His live event return suggests that we might see him back on TV soon. If this latest interaction is any indication, Omos might be getting involved in a big feud upon his comeback.

Injury Update On Rey Mysterio

A new report from the Wrestling Observer Newsletter has provided an update on the status of WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio, who has been out of action for the past six months with a torn groin injury. While the report indicates that the legendary luchador is expected to be medically cleared for an in-ring return “soon,” it also notes that he is not currently listed for an appearance at the upcoming Survivor Series Premium Live Event.

The event is scheduled to take place on Saturday, November 29, in Mysterio’s hometown of San Diego, California, and many fans had been hoping for a triumphant hometown comeback. Mysterio has been on the sidelines since the weekend of WrestleMania 41 back in April. He suffered the torn groin on the episode of SmackDown just one night before the major event, forcing him to be pulled from his scheduled match at the last minute.

The six-month recovery period has been a long one for the veteran superstar, but the news that he is close to being cleared is a positive sign for his future.While Mysterio is not currently planned for the Survivor Series card, the report does note that a major match is planned for his son, Dominik Mysterio.

The current Intercontinental Champion is reportedly scheduled to defend his championship against John Cena at the event, which will be one of the final matches of Cena’s retirement tour.

Wes Lee Receives Offer From TNA Star After WWE NXT Release

Wes Lee’s time with WWE has come to an end as the former NXT North American Champion was among a wave of recent exits. While Lee’s future now rests outside of WWE, he may not be without a contract for long.

On X, Lee’s former tag-team partner, Zachary Wentz, issued an offer to Wes. Wentz teased that there’ll always be a spot for Lee as part of The Rascalz.

While Wentz didn’t mention Wes by name, fans immediately figured out who he was speaking about. Though some fans were excited at the idea of Lee reuniting with Wentz, Trey Miguel, and Myron Reed, others recalled Lee attacking his former allies and turning heel in August 2024.

Lee is arguably the most surprising name to part WWE in this latest wave of exits. During his NXT run, he held the tag titles twice (both with Wentz) and was one of the longest-reigning NXT North American Champions. Lee also battled several times for the WWE NXT Championship, though he never held the gold.

With his skills and charisma, Lee impressed fans for years as a WWE Superstar. It remains to be seen where his career goes next, but a return to The Rascalz could be on its way.

Konosuke Takeshita Was Drunk For Unconventional Marriage Proposal

Konosuke Takeshita wasn’t far from sober when he made the life-altering decision to propose to fellow wrestler Yuka Sakazaki. In a new interview from the pair, Takeshita shared how he had taken on some ‘liquid courage’ before proposing.

“I didn’t pop the question, really. I was kinda drunk and go ‘Do you love me?’ So I say ‘How much?’ And right away, she says ‘More than I love myself.’ So then I said ‘We should get married.'”

The pair kept their relationship and engagement private for some time. In May 2025, they announced their marriage — the first time they had spoken publicly about their relationship. Echoing her earlier words, Yuka’s post announcing their marriage included the caption, “They mean more to me than anything, even myself.”

Takeshita has been part of AEW since 2022 where he is a former International Champion, and won the G1 Climax earlier this year. Sakazaki is best known for her time with TJPW, where she is a three-time Princess of Princess Champion and four-time (and inaugural) Tag Team Champion.

2025 has been a landmark year for the couple, both professionally and personally. With their Goldendoodle, Kenshiro, by their side, Konosuke and Yuka are ready to take on the world as a true wrestling power couple.

John Cena Set To Face Current Champion At Survivor Series (Report)

John Cena will get the chance to make history again before his retirement.

The Cenation Leader will be competing against AJ Styles at the Crown Jewel Perth PPV today in what is expected to be the last encounter of these old rivals.

The former world champion will have only one more PPV appearance left in his retirement tour after the Australia show, which will be the November 29 Survivor Series PPV from San Diego, California.

There has been a lot of talk about who John Cena will face at this final PLE appearance, and a new report might have revealed the same.

According to the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dominik Mysterio is scheduled to defend his Intercontinental Championship against the Peacemaker star at the show.

John made history when he defeated Cody Rhodes to win his 17th world title at WrestleMania 41 earlier this year. The IC title is the only championship he has never won in his long and illustrious career, so it wouldn’t be a surprise if Cena ends up winning this match to create another record on his way out.

After Crown Jewel, the WWE veteran will have only four more appearances left in his retirement run. He will be making his final Boston appearance as an active performer during the November 10 Raw.

His last New York event will be the November 17 episode of the Red Branded show. Following Survivor Series, Cena will be making his final WWE appearance at Saturday Night’s Main Event on December 13, for his retirement match.

Allie Katch Returns At HOG Wrestling After Broken Leg Injury

Allie Katch made her triumphant return to pro wrestling after a broken leg derailed her career in early 2025. As part of House of Glory’s latest event, Indi Hartwell retained the HOG Women’s Title against Zayda Steel. When Steel attacked Hartwell after the match, Katch made the save.

On X, Katch reflected on her big return. Katch declared that “the time is now” for her to take bookings again and that “the universe’s timing is never wrong.”

Allie Katch suffered an injury at The People Vs. GCW in January, and it was confirmed that she had broken her leg in two places. A GoFundMe was launched to help her during her recovery, which raised over $53,000. Notable donors include Nic Nemeth, Matt Cardona, Liv Morgan, Brit Baker, Piper Niven, and Danhausen.

With Katch back and taking bookings again, the popular independent wrestler is ready to put this injury behind her. Katch maintained a positive attitude during her hiatus, and now she’s ready to dish out pain of her own in the squared circle once more.

Backstage Response To Big E Saying In-Ring Career Is Behind Him

On a recent edition of Stephanie McMahon’s What’s Your Story? podcast, Big E shared that his in-ring career is “kind of behind me,” over three years after his most recent match. This comment has led to fans fearing that Big E will never make a return to in-ring competition.

Multiple people who spoke to Fightful Select shared that the consensus backstage is that Big E is done. In recent years, sources have referred to the former WWE Champion as “retired” and as a “former wrestler.”

Big E’s most recent match came during the March 11, 2022, episode of WWE SmackDown. During the match, he suffered a broken neck after taking a move on the outside that resulted in fractures to his C1 and C6 vertebrae.

Big E has been open about his in-ring career potentially being over, and is grateful to be living pain-free. Big E has no issue with Ridge Holland, the man who caused the injury, and has spoken publicly about wanting the very best for the Welsh Superstar.

Big E has remained a part of WWE programming, and can often be found at post-PLE shows and in other non-physical roles. With all that said, it appears fans have seen the last of Big E in the ring.

Jon Moxley and Darby Allin took their AEW feud out of the ring by brawling in front of fans at New York Comic Con. During a panel highlighting the upcoming AEW x DC Comics crossover series, Allin interrupted and threw a glass of water at Moxley.

Moxley responded by showing Allin through the backdrop that displayed the logos for AEW and DC Comics. The pair traded some fists before being separated by security. The fans at the panel, excited at the brawl, gave the pair a “Holy S***” chant as well as chants for AEW.

The two have been feuding ever since Allin returned from his successful climb of Mt. Everest. After this brawl, the pair will meet in an I Quit match at AEW Wrestledream. With neither man ready to hold back, it remains to be seen who will be forced to say those dreaded two words.

AEW WrestleDream 2025 will take place on October 18 at the Chaifetz Arena in St. Louis, Missouri. Stay tuned to SEScoops for the latest on AEW WrestleDream, including breaking news and live results.

Mercedes Moné Wins 10th Title, Ties Record of Último Dragon

AEW’s Mercedes Moné has added yet another championship to her collection, tying the record currently held by Último Dragon. On October 10, Moné captured the BODYSLAM Women’s Championship in Denmark, ending the reign of Aliss Ink.

On X, Moné relished in her victory. Sharing a photo of her 10 championship title belts, the CEO was all smiles after the match.

With this win, Moné ties the record that Último Dragon has held for decades. In 1996, Ultimo Dragon won the J-Cup and unified eight championships in the process. At the time, Dragon was also the WCW Cruiserweight Champion and NWA Middleweight Champion at the time, bringing his total to ten.

Moné is now just one title away from breaking Dragon’s record, and is well aware that she could soon make history. On X, Moné changed her name to ‘Último Moné,’ showing that she’s is aware of the record she and Dragon now share.

On October 19, Moné will take on Jody Threat for the Winnipeg Pro Wrestling title at the Rumble in the Bert event. Time will tell if Moné adds an eleventh title to her record, and if so, make pro wrestling history.
