We were the first to report that AEW’s TBS Women’s Champion & NJPW STRONG Women’s Champion Mercedes Mone (fka Sasha Banks) has filed for divorce from her husband, WWE costume designer Sarath Ton aka Mikaze.
They got married in 2016.
TMZ has now confirmed this story as well and provided the following update on the situation:
“Sources close to the couple tell us that while they are calling it quits … they have remained friends throughout the breakup — and their situation has never turned nasty.”
On her YouTube channel, Mercedes said the following about her divorce:
“Tomorrow finally, after a long, long time, I’ll be finally signing my divorce papers. And I’m excited, happy and for me I’m just ready to be free… of not being afraid.
Sarath, my ex-husband now, we had such a great relationship, and he’s such an amazing, incredible guy, that I’m so thankful for, he’s another person that changed and saved my life.”

Speaking of Mercedes, a fan commented the following under her Instagram post:
“No offense, but you’re a sh*tty wrestler. You sucked in WWE because you couldn’t handle work real competition was to make a real name for yourself so you had to go to the low class place. I think you’re big and bad and you’re really a waste of the time. Dr. Baker is a better wrestler than you.”
Mercedes saw this comment and replied:
“I’m the GOAT.”
Mercedes recently had another exchange with a fan, where she took a shot at WWE. You can read it below:
Fan: This hair reminds me of the hair you had in WWE as Sasha Banks. I miss that wrestler.
Mercedes: No, you don’t.
Fan: Yes I do, AEW is trash and just filled with ex WWE wrestlers. Just saying.
Mercedes: And what is E filled with (laughing emoji)
Mercedes will defend the TBS Title against Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D. (who has been suspended from All Elite Wrestling) at the All In PPV at Wembley Stadium on August 25th.
