While speaking to TMZ on Friday, Mercedes was asked if she had creative control in AEW.
"I feel like here at AEW, all of my dreams and opportunity is just endless. So, of course, being the TBS champion and this Sunday at Forbidden Door, I'm about to be two-time champion. I'm going to be the TBS champion and the New Japan Strong Champion. So, yes, this little creativity that I have of taking all the belts and going global is beautiful."
When pressed further on if she had creative control in the company, Mone noted that she does have creative control but works closely with Tony Khan.
"I mean, because I got this. I think just every single week you got to watch. Yes, I have creative control, but I work with Tony Khan very closely. So it's great. It's a great combo."
