Following her WWE departure, Mercedes Moné made her NJPW debut at Wrestle Kingdom.
She went on to win the IWGP Women's Championship by beating KAIRI. Speaking in a recent interview with Sports Illustrated, the former WWE star revealed why went to Japan after leaving WWE:
"The ultimate goal for a lot of professional wrestlers is to make it to WWE,” said Moné, who set the industry aflame in WWE as Sasha Banks. “That’s what I thought was the big time. But I did that. I wanted to make new history, and the place to do it is here in Japan. Japan has the highest standards for women’s wrestling, and I want to set the standard in New Japan."
