You never know who might return to WWE and as CM Punk recently proved you can never say never in the world of professional wrestling. Over the last few months fans have been talking a lot about a potential return for Mercedes Mone. Fightful Select recently reported that while Mercedes and WWE were in talks the two sides couldn’t come to a deal, so Mercedes is not expected to return at this time.
Dave Meltzer recently discussed the talks between WWE and Mercedes on Wrestling Observer Radio and he claimed that he was told the two sides were far apart on money.
“She was absolutely negotiating with WWE. From what I was told, they were far apart on money. There is one person in WWE who said, like, ‘Until she shows up and until you hear she signed a contract, just remember what happened with CM Punk,’ like that. But I don’t know if they know or they were, but I was absolutely told that this afternoon, ‘Just remember what happened with Punk.’ You know, when they say it’s done and they tell everyone it’s done. But we were told by multiple people that they were far apart on money.
And that’s what, the same thing from a year ago, if you remember, when before she went to New Japan and when there was all the talk that she might come back when Vince (McMahon) was gone and [Triple H] was there, and in the end, they did not make the deal a year ago because she had asked for again, the way it was explained was, Charlotte Flair money and, they weren’t going to go that high.”
