Willow Nightingale has posted publicly for the first time since losing the AEW Women’s World Championship to Mercedes Mone at All In 2026.
In a post on X, Nightingale said she cannot smile in defeat but can get out of bed knowing she gave everything, and that she will smile again in time. She signed off with “Let’s keep pushing forward.”
Nightingale wrestled the match with a broken hand, which she confirmed days before the show. Mone’s win made her the first woman to hold world titles in AEW, CMLL and WWE.
Nightingale won the title from Thekla at AEW Redemption. Thekla was at Wembley Stadium for All In but did not have a match.
