Last night, AAA broadcast their biggest PPV event of the year, Triplemania XXV, live and for free on Twitch.tv in hopes of expanding their presence in North America as Mexico’s top promotion. But during the match for the AAA Reina de Reinas (Women’s) Championship, champion Sexy Star apparently decided to take matters into her own hands and turned the match into a shoot.
Sexy Star Shoots in AAA Match
During an early part of the match, Sexy Star took a chair shot and was out of the ring for what felt like an extended amount of time. When she returned, she stormed the ring and busted open one opponent, Lady Shani, and when it came to the finish, she aggressively went for an arm submission on GFW’s Rosemary, a late addition to the card, and according to PWInsider.com’s Mike Johnson, actually dislocated it.
“During the finishing sequence of the Reina de Reinas match at tonight’s AAA Triplemania XXV, Sexy Star legitimately injured Rosemary’s arm, popping it out of place during her armbar submission. We are told Rosemary is being checked out by doctors backstage to determine the extent of the damage.” Mike Johnson, PWInsider.com
Rosemary was literally trying to get out of it.. SS wouldn't let go. You can see the anguish on her face, as SS kept going. 🤬🤬😡 pic.twitter.com/Jml5YiDQXw

Johnson would update hours later that while the injury did occur, it would not cause any long term effects, such as loss of match time. Vampiro apparently sought down Sexy Star backstage and made her confront and apologize to Rosemary before she left the Arena, but Lady Shani was also backstage waiting for Star for her actions and things got heated.
Needless to say, as the news began to spread throughout the wrestling world, many of Rosemary’s GFW co-workers began to get riled up in defence of their Demon Assassin, with some implying that payback could be in the works.
One of the more vocal was fellow GFW star Allie, a close friend of Rosemary – the two worked Canadian indie scenes for years and their rivalry with Toronto’s Smash Wrestling is the stuff of legend.

That sentiment was echoed by other performers as well, including GFW’s Karen Jarrett and former Reina de Reinas Champion Taya Valkyrie, who has had her own beef with AAA of late, including Sexy Star.
DISGUSTING is just one word. We put our lives in each other's hands. So unprofessional. This is how you work yourself out of the business https://t.co/aELhRMO017

Some people are such huge marks for themselves that they'll never understand the art of the "work." Those people should never be in a ring.

It's disappointing to see a "professional" be so careless and wreckless with a fellow worker… All I can say is: KARMA. https://t.co/j892olqUJh

Let's put this person who has trusted me with their well being in a real shooty hold. I'll surely be looked at as a legit badass right?
