– In a post on Instagram, former WWE Superstar Dean Muhtadi, aka Mojo Rawley, discussed putting together the deal between Mercedes Mone and Crunchyroll for their new partnership that was announced last month.

According to Muhtadi, the deal has been in the works for two years. He wrote the following on the collaboration:

“Two years ago, we at @weareparagontalent started work on a @MercedesMone collaboration with @Crunchyroll. The idea was to create a partnership that would allow her fan base to share her love of anime in a tangible way. Paragon and Crunchyroll worked tirelessly to create a structure that saw me and @stevenmkaye bring Mercedes to the Anime Awards in Tokyo last year to partake in the festivities, provide a marketing amplification, and also share this awesome new merch line with you all. Two years later, it is really cool to see this all finally come to fruition. Thank you to #Crunchyroll for being amazing partners, to Mercedes for going above and beyond every step of the way, and to all the fans that have supported this campaign!!!”

Muhtadi is the founder of the Paragon Talent Agency. Mercedes Mone’s Crunchyroll collection is available HERE.
