His publication confirmed his intentions to leave AAA and hinted at new opportunities on the horizon.
A Chapter Closing: From Catwoman to Sexy Star
Sexy Star II, whose real name has remained hidden due to the masked wrestler tradition, began using the Sexy Star name in 2021, making her debut at AAA’s Rey de Reyes event. However, her career in professional wrestling goes back much further. She originally competed under the moniker “Gatubela,” gaining a reputation in several regional promotions before adopting the Sexy Star persona, a name that had previously been used by another wrestler, Dulce Maria Garcia, who had already made a splash on the lucha libre scene.
During her time as Sexy Star II, she became a staple in AAA’s women’s division. Fans quickly embraced her high-flying wrestling style and fearless personality. She was involved in several key storylines and championship fights, most notably challenging for the AAA Queen of Queens Championship and the AAA World Mixed Tag Team Championships.
A Legacy Beyond the Mask
Sexy Star II’s AAA career also saw her participate in notable events, including the prestigious Showcenter Tournament and the Women’s Wrestling World Cup. While she never captured the Queen of Queens Championship during her time with AAA, her contributions to the women’s division are undeniable. The Sexy Star character itself has a rich legacy in wrestling, and both Sexy Star I and II have left lasting marks on the industry.
Now, as she prepares to retire the Sexy Star mask, fans are curious to see what the future holds for her under the Catwoman persona. This is not the first time a female wrestler has undergone such a transformation, but it is certainly a significant moment in the current landscape of women’s wrestling. It remains to be seen if Gatubela will continue to wrestle for Mexican promotions or venture internationally.
