Mercedes Moné set to face Isla Dawn ahead of All In title match

AEW professional wrestler Mercedes Moné has been announced to face former WWE star Isla Dawn on an upcoming episode of Collision. This match takes place just one day before Moné’s high-stakes title match at AEW’s All In 2026 event.

Moné and Willow Nightingale continue their long-standing rivalry ahead of their scheduled AEW Women’s World Championship match at All In. In recent interviews, Moné expressed deep resentment toward Nightingale, citing a history of personal disrespect following an injury Moné sustained during a match with Nightingale at NJPW Resurgence in 2023. Moné claimed that Nightingale’s positive attitude and actions, such as smiling after a pinfall, were intended to annoy her during her recovery.

Nightingale has addressed the tension, stating that while she faces hardships, she chooses to find the silver lining. The rivalry has escalated through various championship changes and personal confrontations, setting the stage for their upcoming championship bout.
