"A real beauty and the beast situation" - Mercedes Mone dating popular AEW star

Despite summer having arrived, it feels like springtime for Mercedes Mone in All Elite Wrestling. According to a new report, the former Sasha Banks of WWE just opened a new chapter in her love life with fellow All Elite star The Beast Mortos.

Fans were buzzing earlier today when Mortos posted a photo of himself with Mercedes Mone on Instagram, captioned, "In your arms I find peace." The TBS Champion then reposted the image, which all but confirmed that the two had begun dating. Now, TMZ has revealed that Mone and the masked monster are indeed in a relationship.

According to the report, Mone herself provided the confirmation, telling TMZ that it was "a real beauty and the beast situation." The Beast Mortos has made a name for himself on AEW Collision, with fans taking to him after his acclaimed matches against the high-flying Hologram. He's also set to become a lawyer in just a few months, having recently passed his exams.

AEW fans have never seen the luchador's face, but imaginations are bound to run wild now that he's dating one of the top stars in the industry. For her part, Mercedes Mone is set to face "Timeless" Toni Storm for the Women's World Championship at All In: Texas on July 12.
