You think Mercedes turns up tonight Jason?
Good question. No idea. If history is any indication, we’ll get the “Tony Khan has a big announcement” tease before she shows up.
Unless he does it like Sting who showed up out of nowhere with no ‘big announcement’ fanfare? If she came out after the 4on4 tag a staredown with Willow would be nice … and Saraya.
I’m hoping Hayter might return also. Hayter v Mercedes 1v1 for the title at Wembley is what I want to see … if she signs. Toni storm may have other ideas
Possible. The Sting appearance was preceded by a lot of hype for Winter Is Coming, but you’re right that it wasn’t a Tony Khan announcement. I don’t feel like the hype for the Homecoming theme has been as big as the hype was for Winter Is Coming, but perhaps it wasn’t as big as my brain seems to think it was (terrible memory). Jamie Hayter and Britt Baker should both give them a boost once they return unless they botch it like they have with Thunder Rosa so far.
