She grew up in a low-income family and raised money in the neighborhood to visit Mexico to pursue wrestling. Despite the hardship, she has accomplished much with her passion and dedication.
When I started to get really serious about wanting to be a wrestler. Then, when I was 16 or so, I started to raise money, and I came to Mexico to learn wrestling and I stayed in Mexico.

Konnan has talked about the dark incident on Eric Bischoff’s podcast. He asked CMLL to put money so he couldn’t escape jail.
El Cuatero had his people who believed in his version of the story, doing matches that he was innocent.
This probably happened last year but (Stephanie Vaquer and El Cuatrero) got into a fight. He was messing around. He grabbed her by the throat and she had marks on her throat, and it was a real big deal. He actually went to jail and he’s still in jail.
