Mercedes Mone’s ring gear for AEW All In was her most expensive to date, with the TBS Champion noting it cost over $10,000. Mone revealed in her latest fan newsletter that her ring gear was the most expensive she’s invested in to date and talked about the importance of investing in yourself, as you can see below:
$10,000 Ring Attire
My hair wasn’t the only thing that cost a pretty penny. My robe, which was so beautiful, grand, and regal, was also my most expensive in my 14 years of wrestling. The whole outfit, in total, cost me over $10,000, All In (no pun intended).Spending on Ring Costumes
As far as wrestlers investing so much money into their attire, it really depends on where they’re at in their career. If you’re not there salary wise, you try to find cheaper ways to look your best and it’s for sure possible. I did. When it comes to the biggest events, you invest all that you can. These stages are huge and these moments last forever so you want to put your best foot forward. It doesn’t always come down to money. It comes down to investing the time, being creative and resourceful. Doing so elevates standards and elevates your character. I feel it’s all worth it, and in the end, it does pay off. I hope to teach this sentiment to some of the younger girls on our roster.
