After an impressive showing at AEW Forbidden Door 2024 in her match against Mercedes Mone, Stephanie Vaquer has reportedly received offers from both AEW and WWE. Several reports suggest that the 31-year-old Chilean star could be ready to move to the United States full-time. At the Forbidden Door event, held in June 2024, Vaquer competed against Mone in a match that earned her praise from fans and critics alike. Unlike Mone, who had a lackluster showing full of botches.
Vaquer’s performance not only demonstrated her skill in the ring but also her ability to capture the attention of international audiences. Subsequently, it was reported that both WWE and AEW have sent contract offers to Vaquer, looking to incorporate her into their respective promotions.
These offers come at a pivotal time in her career, as Vaquer has been excelling at CMLL since 2019 and recently had several major matches in NJPW. She is also the current CMLL Women’s World Champion and Tag Team Champion alongside Zeuxis. Suffice to say, she has been a dominant force in Mexican wrestling.

However, some seemed not too pleased with the decision. Dissenting voices expected her to join AEW for the fat paychecks rather than a boost in her career. While few criticized Tony Khan for using the Forbidden Door PLE as some sort of tryout. One where he got to see the talents and now he’s making the bidding.
