Who is Stephanie Vaquer? Know all about WWE's upcoming hyped roster addition

It appears that one of the top female wrestlers around, Stephanie Vaquer, is indeed heading to WWE. While multiple wrestling outlets have reported this since yesterday, Vaquer is all set to become the next NXT female star after Shawn Micheals welcomed the star to WWE.

The 31-year-old female wrestler has had an impressive career that started way back in February 2009. She has won multiple titles in Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre, which led to her moving to New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW).

She became the women's champion in NJPW, which led to a feud with former WWE and now AEW megastar Mercedes Mone at the AEW Forbidden Door Pay-Per-View a couple of weeks ago.

In a champion vs. champion match, which was highly acclaimed by wrestling insiders and fans, Vaquer put forth a great exhibition of her potential. It appears that this was her last appearance with CMLL and NJPW and she is now heading to WWE.
