Summary

Mercedes Moné made a public appearance in Los Angeles for the premiere of *The Mandalorian and Grogu*, which is set for a nationwide release on May 22.

The appearance fits Moné's connection to the franchise. She previously portrayed Koska Reeves in *The Mandalorian* television series.

Mercedes Moné's Hollywood connection

Moné's appearance at the premiere was a reminder that her profile still reaches well beyond wrestling. While the update does not clarify when she will be back on AEW television, it keeps her in the spotlight during a stretch where her in-ring future has been left open.

Where Moné stands after her recent losses

Moné has not appeared on AEW television since losing the AEW TBS Championship to Willow Nightingale at *AEW Dynamite: New Year's Smash*. The following week, Willow Nightingale, Kris Statlander and Harley Cameron humiliated her, and Moné said she would return looking for more than titles.

Her most recent match also ended in defeat, as she lost the WPW Women's Title to Jody Threat on March 31. For now, the premiere appearance offers a public update on Moné, but not a timetable for her AEW return.
