WATCH: Stephanie Vaquer reveals her struggles to learn English and Japanese to be wrestler (Source: X)
Stephanie Vaquer spoke about her difficulties in learning different languages to be a wrestler. In a recent interview, the star wrestler recalled how she was approached by CMLL, NJPW, and WWE eventually. Vaquer felt it was not easy to switch from Chile to Mexico and later learn languages like English and Japanese that are alien to her.
In the interview, the Chile-based wrestler said that she was the first South American female wrestler to bag a contract with CMLL. She felt proud of it and felt there was a lot of time needed for her to get set in the business. From 2019 to 2024, Vaquer was a part of the Mexican company and established herself as a top star in the women's division.

In 2023, she got a call from NJPW. For a brief period, Stephanie was also a part of the Japanese company. She explained that the Japanese call was surprising for her. The star wrestler said she learned English in Mexico and went to Japan only to realize that English was not going to be enough for survival. Vaquer realized she had to learn Japanese too.
Stephanie Vaquer's adaption to different companies
In the interview, Stephanie Vaquer added that she was one of the fewest wrestlers to have learned both English and Japanese for the sake of Wrestling. Stephanie claimed it was a dream of her to be in Japan and wrestle. The NXT star said she got the stardom but at a cost. Vaquer felt it was not easy for her to learn both languages in a quick time.
As Stephanie was asked to drop the NJPW Women's strong belt to Mercedes Mone at Forbidden Door, WWE welcomed her with both hands. The star wrestler signed a contract with the company and will be in NXT. She is likely to make her debut on NXT in the next few weeks. It is one of the most anticipated debuts in recent times.
