Mone’s reign lasted 281 days — she won it in June 2025 in a three-way match against Lexa Valo and Smidt. After the match, Mone showed support by joining Smidt to hold a sign saying “More women in the ring” to promote women’s wrestling.
This is Mone’s third straight title loss this month. She recently lost the CMLL Women’s Championship to Persephone and the BestYa Wrestling Women’s Championship to Swan.
Mone now holds six belts, including titles from Discovery Wrestling (Scotland), PTW (Poland), Bodyslam (Denmark), WPW (Canada), APAC (Malaysia), and the 2025 Owen Hart Foundation Championship.
• WrestleMania 42 Ban Has Been Lifted
Fans in Las Vegas will finally be able to watch WrestleMania 42 at local bars and parties after all. Originally, WWE and Joe Hand Promotions planned a blackout, which would have banned any public watch parties within 50 miles of Allegiant Stadium. WWE’s goal was to force more people to buy tickets to the live show — a move that local hotels and casinos absolutely hated.
The backlash from the city was huge. Since Las Vegas paid a massive fee to host the event, city officials felt the whole town should benefit from the business, not just the stadium. After weeks of complaining from tourist spots and the local visitor’s board, WWE finally backed down.
According to Fightful Select, Circa’s Stadium Swim has confirmed the ban is over. As long as a venue has the proper license, they can now legally host a WrestleMania 42 party. It’s a major win for fans who want to experience the show in Vegas without paying for a stadium ticket.

Kit Wilson came out and called Jelly Roll fat-phobic and toxic. Miz held Kit back. Jelly went to punch Kit, but Kit got out of the way and Jelly laid out Miz.
According to Bodyslam, Jelly Roll is expected to compete in a tag team match at WrestleMania 42 and his partner is scheduled to be Royce Keys (fka Powerhouse Hobbs in AEW). WWE is booking angle where Jelly and Royce bond over stories of their real-life hardships, which is one of the reasons WWE heavily promoted Royce’s appearance on Stephanie McMahon’s “What’s Your Story?” podcast.

So far, Royce Keys has only made one televised appearance on WWE TV, which was in the Men’s Royal Rumble match.
