Mickie James Is Dream Match For Mercedes Moné
Mickie James is one of the fantasy opponents that Mercedes Moné would love to face in the ring.
In the latest issue of the MonéMag, Mercedes Moné named her top five fantasy opponents and explained why she wants to face James in the ring for the first time.
“What can I say? I LOVED her versus Trish Status’s storyline growing up! I was so inspired by it, I never saw a woman’s storyline like that. What made it even more incredible was that it lasted for an entire year which seemed unheard of for women. They even had an amazing WrestleMania match. I was only a teenager then, but they just truly inspired me, so Mickie makes the last for sure.”
