Stephanie Vaquer Addresses CMLL Exit As WWE Speculation Continues
Stephanie Vaquer is on the move.
On July 10th it was announced by CMLL that Stephanie Vaquer would be leaving the promotion, while also walking away from NJPW. This sent speculation around her future into overdrive. As a result, Vaquer has been stripped of the CMLL Women’s World Title, and the Women’s Tag Team Titles she held with Zeuxis.
Amidst rumours she could be on the verge of signing a big-money deal with WWE, Vaquer posted the following statement on social media.
At this moment I stop belonging to the ranks of CMLL and NJPW
Clarify, I AM LEAVING THROUGH THE BIG DOOR, forever grateful to the WORLD WRESTLING COUNCIL AND NEW JAPAN PRO WRESTLING, and in the best terms.
From today I vacate the CMLL World Women’s Championship as well as the CMLL World Women’s Couples Championship.
For which I offer an apology to the fans. For obvious reasons, I will not be present at the next shows and I hope you can understand that the terms between companies are what lead to this statement.
With Mexico in my heart and with the commitment to represent Mexican wrestling wherever I go
Infinite thanks to SR Salvador Lutteroth for his good wishes and also to all the unconditional support of my people and my colleagues
THANK YOU
