UPDATE: Fightful reported that Vaquer is WWE and NXT bound and was backstage at NXT Heatwave last Sunday.
ORIGINAL: It was announced today that Stephanie Vaquer is leaving CMLL and NJPW for personal reasons. She has been stripped of the CMLL World and Tag Team Titles.
This is after Vaquer dropped the NJPW Strong Women’s Title to Mercedes Mone at Forbidden Door last month. She had been praised leading into and coming out of the bout. Over the last week, it had been rumored that she had interest from both AEW and WWE, although she had a CMLL contract.
Fightful Select confirmed today that Vaquer has had talks with both AEW and WWE, as both companies have maintained interest. As of this writing, she has not signed with AEW, nor is she close to signing a deal there.
They were told WWE showed interest after Forbidden Door, and those in AEW believe she was likely headed to WWE. In the past, CMLL has allowed talent out of their deals when US promotions offer deals.
