The Robert Stone brand lost Mercedes Martinez after a brilliant cage match against Rhea Ripley
The Robert Stone brand seems to have lost another big member as Mercedes Martinez lost to Rhea Ripley.
Ripley and Mercedes in a steel cage match in the main event of this week’s WWE NXT. It was a tough match with Martinez ending up on the losing side. She has looked good since coming onto NXT and this was an incredible match with both stars starring.
However, Robert Stone was present to support his client, Martinez. He tried to help out in certain sections of the match, and was left hanging at the top of the steel cage at one point.
Martinez didn’t seem to care for her manager as she went all out against the Australian. However, Martinez ended up going through the table as Ripley won the match.
Stone, as expected, wasn’t too happy with what transpired and ranted against Martinez. He had a huge statement to make as Martinez wasn’t a member of the brand anymore.
Stone also opened up the floor for some questions but no one was around to take them up.

Martinez unaffected
While Martinez might have lost the fight, she didn’t care about Stone’s actions. She was interviewed while leaving NXT and was presented a restraining order from Stone.
However, Martinez tore that apart and didn’t care about the actions from her former agent.

It will be interesting to see what happens next with the brand and Martinez. Stone has lost one of the best female talents on the roster and had done so with Chelsea Green a while back too.
Martinez, for her part, should continue her rivalry with Ripley and that could lead to more fun matches in the future too.
