They say that anything can happen in the world of professional wrestling and that includes mistakes. There’s always hope that things will go according to plan during a set of TV tapings, but sometimes that’s just not the case.
In her recent Mone Mag current TBS Champion Mercedes Mone recalled a match she had with Nia Jax at a TV taping that ended sooner than either competitor expected it to. Vince McMahon accidentally called for the bell which led to Triple H jokingly telling Mercedes Mone to confront him.
“This should probably be a Moné Memory, but while we’re on the subject of TV tapings, behind the scenes, and Vince McMahon, I remember one time I had a storyline and match with Nia Jax. During the match, Vince accidentally called over the headset for the referee to ring the bell. And it was way too early. We were confused, but we played along.
When I got backstage, I remember going to Triple H and being like, what just happened? Triple H explained it was an accident and, playfully, told me to go and confront Vince. So I did. Vince admitted he was wrong and then shared a laugh about it.”
Mercedes Mone also recently opened up about her working relationship with Vince McMahon and how it ended up being one of the reasons why she left WWE which you can read about here.
