Mercedes Moné spoke with Katee Sackhoff on The Katee Sackhoff Show on several topics, including retirement from pro wrestling.
Moné said, “That scares me, I don’t want to think about the word retirement but I do think about slowing down because I’ve been doing it for so long. Aches and pains start to catch up and different dreams start to happen. Life starts to grow and I just have so many more dreams that I want to go pursue and chase and go accomplish while I still can, being young and feeling good and having my body feel good.”
On if she will slow down at some point:
“I don’t want to put a time frame of when that exact moment I will slow down, but I know sooner than later, I definitely want to take more time to pursue other things and really set that place of what am I going to do when I’m done wrestling. What’s going to bring me the most joy, what is my passion, and I still love this business so much so I always want to be a part of it whether that’s being a producer or a coach or just always being involved with that, I really enjoy the process of creating and forming matches and I think I’m really good at that, especially for women. I feel like when I’m done with wrestling, that’s an aspect or avenue that I want to go into. Right now, I’m just on this journey of making women’s wrestling global.”
