WWE has signed former Ring Of Honor star and former Mae Young Classic competitor Mercedes Martinez to a contract, according to SoCal UNCENSORED.
Martinez has been active in the wrestling world from the past couple of decades and she first started training for an in-ring career in late 2000.
She made her debut in November that year and the female star went on to wrestle for a number of indie promotions in England and America in the coming years.
Her first big break came in 2006 when she made her debut for Ring Of Honor on March 25 where she competed in a Shimmer sanctioned match.
She was brought in by WWE for the inaugural Mae Young Classic tournament where she made it to the semi-finals before being eliminated by Shayna Baszler.
Since then, Mercedes has made a number of appearances for the company on the NXT brand and she competed in the second Mae Young Classic tournament as well.
It’s interesting to note here that Mercedes Martinez has also made appearances for AEW recently and she made her debut for the promotion during the All Out event, where she was revealed as the ‘Joker’ in the second Casino Battle Royale.
No word yet on when Martinez will start her tenure with WWE or what the company is planning for her but we’ll keep you posted on the matter.
