A 2x SHIMMER Champion, 3x Women Superstars Uncensored (WSU) Champion, 5x World Xtreme Wrestling (WXW) Women’s Champion. Mercedes Martinez is already a legend in women’s wrestling in the indie world, where she’s also currently one half of the SHINE Tag Team Champions with Ivelisse. Per WWE’s website, “using an aggressive combination\u00a0of strong-style and submission wrestling, Martinez defeated China\u2019s Xia Li, Mexico\u2019s Princesa Sugehit and America\u2019s Abbey Laith in last year\u2019s tournament before falling to her prot\u00e9g\u00e9, current NXT Women\u2019s Champion Shayna Baszler, in the Semifinals. With an astonishing number of titles to her resume, The Latina Sensation will undoubtedly be one of the most decorated competitors in the mix this year.”<\/p>\n
