Summary

  • Mercedes Moné captured the AEW Women's World Championship at All In on Aug. 30, forcing Willow Nightingale to pass out in the Money Maker for her first reign with the title.
  • Nightingale entered Wembley with a broken hand she had confirmed before the match, and Moné targeted that injury after surviving an early bloody nose, a ringside suplex and a belt shot.
  • The finish came after Nightingale faded physically and could no longer continue, prompting the referee to call for the bell.
  • The win adds the world title to Moné's AEW résumé after a 500-plus-day TBS Championship run and two Owen Hart Foundation Women's Tournament victories.
  • Thekla, who returned earlier on the show after losing the title to Nightingale at Redemption, watched from above Wembley as a possible challenger for All Out next month.
