Moné says WWE deliberately filled her schedule during production dates.

Mercedes Moné has been busy since exiting WWE . The former Sasha Banks departed the sports-entertainment giant in 2022 and took her talents to New Japan Pro Wrestling . Within a couple of weeks of her debut, Moné captured the IWGP Women's Championship, and her work outside of wrestling allowed for that newly-minted title to be paraded around places New Japan never went before.

"I love WWE, but they tried so hard to not make me do The Mandalorian," Moné said." put me on house shows when I was supposed to film. It was pulling teeth just to get on that show, just to be a part of that show." Moné has appeared in five total episodes of The Mandalorian across the show's second and third seasons. Depending on whether she was present at The Mandalorian Season 3 reshoots, all five of those episodes were shot while she was still under WWE contract."With these new doors of opportunity here at AEW, I have all the time in the world to go do acting and more," Moné praised her new employer.

Moné has since acted in a feature film, starring opposite Lucas Till and Ruby Rose in The Collective . Today, Moné wrestles every Wednesday on AEW Dynamite.
