Stephanie Vaquer’s Former Partner Freed

The wrestling world is buzzing with news that could impact both WWE programming and the Mexican wrestling scene. Stephanie Vaquer, who currently holds the NXT Women’s Championship, finds herself indirectly back in the headlines as her ex-boyfriend has just been released from prison under some significant restrictions that reflect the serious nature of the allegations against him.

El Cuatrero recently appeared on Sanson NGD’s YouTube channel alongside his legal team to discuss his release conditions. According to Luchablog’s transcription, he faces three major restrictions: he cannot contact Stephanie Vaquer in any way, he’s prohibited from leaving Mexico, and perhaps most impactful for his career, he’s currently barred from returning to professional wrestling – though his attorneys are actively working to overturn this last restriction. He revealed he spent his time behind bars training in preparation for an eventual in-ring return.

The situation stems from March 2023 when Vaquer, then working for CMLL, filed a report alleging El Cuatrero had strangled her and thrown her against a wall. The Mexican promotion issued a statement at the time, and El Cuatrero was subsequently arrested in Mexico City. During his recent YouTube appearance, Vaquer’s name wasn’t mentioned, and specific details about the case were avoided entirely.

With the legal proceedings still ongoing and El Cuatrero confirming he’s not wearing an electronic monitoring device, this story is far from over. The stark contrast between their current situations – Vaquer thriving on WWE programming while El Cuatrero fights to rebuild his career – highlights how quickly fortunes can change in professional wrestling. The no-contact order will keep them physically separated, but the shadow of this case may follow both performers for some time to come.
