Glasgow – AEW Women’s World Champion Willow Nightingale is set to travel to Wembley Stadium in London for the All In pay‑per‑view on Sunday, where she will face Mercedes Moné for the title. While promoting the bout on the “Collision” broadcast, Nightingale appeared with a wrap around her left hand, indicating a serious injury.
Injury confirmed
Nightingale told POST Wrestling that her left hand is legitimately broken and that she will undergo an x‑ray to determine the severity. She explained that the injury could limit wrist flexibility, but emphasized that her heart and determination remain strong.
Backstage assault fuels the rivalry
Last week, Moné launched a vicious backstage attack on Nightingale, intensifying the personal feud ahead of the match. Nightingale responded on air, saying, “Mercedes, you can try to stop me, injured or not, I’m still here and I’m still talking to you guys.” She added that she intends to enter Wembley with the championship and leave still holding it.
Expectations for a split crowd
When asked about the atmosphere at All In, Nightingale said she anticipates a “split crowd” but remains confident in the support of her fans. She praised the dedication of the AEW audience and warned that the match will be a hard fight, especially with her injury.
What’s at stake
The championship bout pits Nightingale’s resilience against Moné’s aggressive style. Both athletes are among AEW’s top performers, and the match is expected to be a highlight of the All In card, drawing fans from around the world to the historic Wembley venue.
Fans will watch closely on Sunday to see whether Nightingale can overcome a broken hand and retain her title, or if Moné will capitalize on the situation to claim the championship.
