Stephanie Vaquer was originally set for the biggest match of her WWE careera Womens World Title shot against Naomi at Clash In Paris. But when Naomi announced her pregnancy and vacated the title, everything changed. Now, Vaquer will face IYO Sky instead at Wrestlepalooza on September 20, and shes seeing the switch as a blessing in disguise.
Speaking on Insight with Chris Van Vliet, Vaquer opened up about her scrapped title match with Naomi and how the timing of everythingboth personally and professionallyfeels meant to be.
Vaquer didnt hide her respect for her new opponent, either. Facing IYO Sky at WWE Wrestlepalooza, which will stream on ESPN, is now her focusand shes ready for it.
On top of the career shift, the timing couldnt be more personal. Vaquer revealed the match now falls on a weekend close to her own birthdayand her father will be in the crowd for the first time ever.
While fans were excited to see her face Naomi, Vaquer isnt letting the detour derail her. Shes turning the moment into something even more meaningfulboth in the ring and in life.
