WWE landed a major pro wrestling star on Wednesday, one who will start at NXT and certainly bolster the already rising roster the brand has put together.
Stephanie Vaquer, a Chilean professional wrestler who held titles in Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) and New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) and was ranked No. 54 in Pro Wrestling Illustratedās Top 250 womenās wrestlers in 2023, signed with WWE.
Vaquer appeared to say her goodbyes to fans at her final CMLL show over the weekend. CMLL then announced she was being stripped of her Worldās Womenās Championship and World Womenās Tag Team Championship as she departed for "personal reasons."
Shawn Michaels, the WWE legend who is now the senior vice president of talent development creative and leads creative for NXT, confirmed that Vaquer was indeed headed for WWE.
"Welcome to the WWE Family, @Steph_Vaquer. See you in Orlando!" Michaels wrote.
Multiple reports indicated over the last few weeks that WWE and All Elite Wrestling were both interested in bringing in Vaquer full time.
Vaquer appeared at AEWās Forbidden Door event as part of the companyās partnership with CMLL and NJPW. Vaquer fought Mercedes MonĆ©, who performed in WWE as Sasha Banks, for the AEW TBS Championship and NJPW Strongwomanās Championship. MonĆ© ended up winning.
Vaquer will now join a roster filled with talent.
Roxanne Perez is the NXT Womenās Champion and Kelani Jordan is the Womenās North American Champion. Both recently defended their titles against Lola Vice and Sol Ruca respectively.
Adriana Rizzo, Arianna Grace, Brinley Reece, Carlee Bright, Cora Jade, Dani Palmer, Fallon Henley, Gigi Dolan, Izzi Dame, Jacy Jayne, Jaida Parker, Jakara Jackson, Jazymn Nix, Karmen Petrovic, Lash Legend, Meiko Satomura, Nikkita Lyons, Stevie Turner, Tatum Paxley, Thea Hail, Wendy Choo and Wren Sinclair are just some of the other talented women listed on the roster.
WWE has also partnered with TNA in recent months. TNA Womenās Champion Jordynne Grace has appeared on the show, as has Ash by Elegance, formerly known as Dana Brooke in WWE.
