“The moment everyone has been waiting for has arrived. @mercedesmone officially returns to the Bestya Wrestling ring 💰💰💰 This isn’t just a show.
It’s MONÉ MAYHEM. 💥 In the most anticipated main event of the year, the CEO will defend the Bestya Women’s Championship against the challenge of @swan_wrestling, the BEAST of Italian wrestling.“
Mone will defend the title against “The Beast” Swan, a veteran of the Italian independent scene.
Mone originally won the title on July 7, 2025, at PTW All About the Moné in Kosów, Poland, defeating Diana Strong for the vacant championship. She successfully retained the title at Bestya Wrestling Imperium against Queen Maya on November 9 in Rome, Italy.
