Shawn Michaels welcomes Stephanie Vaquer to WWE NXT
Shawn Michaels has seemingly confirmed that Stephanie Vaquer is headed to WWE.
CMLL released a statement earlier today announcing that Vaquer, citing personal reasons, was leaving the company effective immediately. She has been pulled from her scheduled match at NJPW x CMLL Fantasticamania in San Jose on Saturday as well.
Following CMLL’s announcement, the Mexican publication Record wrote on social media that Vaquer is headed to WWE.
“The Chilean wrestler, Stephanie Vaquer, will be a new WWE superstar, thus managing to take a big leap in her career,” a translation of the post reads.
Michaels welcomed Vaquer to the “WWE family” in a social media post on Wednesday afternoon.
“Welcome to the WWE Family, @Steph_Vaquer. See you in Orlando!”
WWE has two house shows in Mexico upcoming. They will be in Mexico City on Saturday and then head to Monterrey the following night. Both shows will be headlined by Santos Escobar challenging Cody Rhodes for the WWE Championship.
