In a world of glitz, grit, and gold, few collisions in professional wrestling feel as seismic as what’s set to erupt at AEW All In: Texas on July 12, 2025. Inside the massive Globe Life Field in Arlington, the AEW Women’s World Champion “Timeless” Toni Storm will defend her beloved crown against the undefeated, unrelenting, and utterly undeniable TBS Champion “The CEO” Mercedes Monè—in a bout that transcends titles and dives headlong into identity, ambition, and the very soul of women’s wrestling.
This isn’t just another chapter in AEW history. This is the chapter.
Two Worlds, One Collision
From the moment Mercedes Monè arrived in All Elite Wrestling, it wasn’t a matter of if she’d dominate, it was when. Armed with a resume decorated in gold and a swagger built from years of mainstream stardom, Monè didn’t just step into AEW—she acquired it. With the TBS Championship around her waist, the CMLL World Women’s Title on her shoulder, and the Owen Hart Women’s belt stashed alongside others in her vault, Monè has made one thing crystal clear: she’s here to collect, conquer, and cement her place as the most decorated woman in wrestling history.
But there’s one prize she hasn’t touched—the AEW Women’s World Championship. And the woman guarding it? A Hollywood-flavored, black-and-white-fever-dream of chaos, class, and charisma: Toni Storm.
“This Belt Is Not Another Toy”
On the May 28 episode of Dynamite, Storm emerged in full starlet form—clutching her championship like an Oscar, draped in vintage glam, and ready for war. “This belt,” she proclaimed, “is not just another prop for your collection. This is art.”
It was a shot across the bow, and Mercedes heard it loud and clear.
Monè, never one to play nice, responded with venom masked in velvet. “I don’t shake hands with people I’m about to beat,” she said, rejecting Storm’s faux-cordial invitation. The two women stared down like titans in an old Hollywood noir—Storm playing the unhinged diva with a cigarette holder and a death glare, Monè standing tall as the boss who’s used to getting everything she wants.
Then came the physicality—a standoff, a reversal, a stare that could melt concrete. In that moment, All In: Texas wasn’t just a destination. It became inevitable.
Legacy vs. Collection
This isn’t a heel-vs-face tale. It’s deeper. Richer. More earned.
Monè is a global phenomenon. From WrestleMania headliners to Tokyo Dome showcases, she’s walked every aisle and lifted every belt worth lifting. But behind the confidence and CEO catchphrases is a competitor obsessed with being seen as the greatest to ever lace up boots. Her “Infinity Gauntlet” of titles isn’t about ego—it’s about immortality. And the AEW Women’s World Championship is the final gem.
But Storm? Storm doesn’t want everything. She just wants this. The “Timeless” one isn’t chasing gold—she’s defending legacy. A legacy not just of her own making, but of what the AEW Women’s Championship represents: artistry, madness, unpredictability. It’s not about how many titles you hold; it’s about how deeply you connect to the one that matters.
This is legacy versus accumulation. Meaning versus momentum. Devotion versus domination.
The Final Face-Off
The road to All In Texas has been littered with promos that feel like soliloquies, staredowns that could headline pay-per-views on their own, and energy that dwarfs most main events. On July 9, just days before All In, the two are set for a final face-to-face segment on Dynamite. AEW has promised fireworks. Frankly, they may as well cancel the rest of the card.
Behind the curtain, there’s something special brewing. This isn’t just AEW putting its top women in a marquee spot. This is AEW declaring that women’s wrestling can be art, theater, war and legend—all at once.
What Happens If…
Let’s speculate.
If Monè wins: The era of the CEO becomes something else entirely. The first woman to hold the TBS and AEW Women’s Championships simultaneously. She becomes not just AEW’s face of the future—but of the industry. But can anyone chase her? Can anyone stop her?
If Storm retains: Her “Timeless” persona becomes eternal. She topples the unbeatable. She doesn’t just survive—she redefines greatness on her terms. No collect-a-thon. No ego trip. Just legacy, locked and preserved like a reel of golden cinema.
And if the aftermath spirals into chaos—title unification? A rematch at Grand Slam? A trilogy that burns down every rule book? AEW has built the runway. Now, they just need to let the rockets fly.
The Main Event Women Deserve
In an industry that often treats women’s stories as secondary, AEW has done something rare: given us a women’s feud that feels mythic. Not forced. Not filler. Real, rich, and roaring toward something unforgettable.
Storm vs. Monè isn’t just a match—it’s a statement.
All In: Texas is about to find out what happens when a “Timeless” Hollywood dream collides with a corporate empire’s unstoppable rise.
