In what is considered a big splash for the up and coming World Wrestling League, Vanilla Vargas<\/strong>, one of the most talented women wrestler in Puerto Rico has join the WWL<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Vanilla is a star on the rise, having experience in Mexico and in the States. Vargas was a valet in\u00a0WWC<\/strong>, serving as a Manager for Angel Fashion<\/strong>. The pair was a stable for WWC through out 2 years in Carlos Colon\u2019s<\/strong> company, with Fashion winning the Puerto Rican Championship and the Jr. Heavyweight Championship under Vanilla Vargas\u2019s wing.<\/p>\n

In late April, Fashion would have left the WWC and later in May would join the newly recharged WWL. This was a hole in Vanilla Vargas\u2019s tenure in WWC. With Fashion gone and WWC not having a Women\u2019s Division, Vanilla would disappear from\u00a0TV for a while.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, she has been tearing apart the international scene, with Vanilla wrestling in Arena Mexico for Ultimo Dragon\u2019s<\/strong> DragonMania<\/strong><\/em> and later in Ohio, where she was awarded the first ever Cleveland Knights Championship Wrestling<\/strong> Women\u2019s Tittle, after beating Miss Hanna. In the few times that Vargas has wrestle lately she has gone head-to-head against the likes of Reyna Isis, former AAA<\/strong> Queen of Queens Champion Taya\u00a0<\/strong>Valkyrie<\/b>\u00a0and CMLL<\/strong>\u2019s Mima Shimoda.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Now, this last week, WWL made official that Vanilla Vargas would be participating in their event War in the West<\/strong><\/em>. Remember when I told you last week that maybe WWL will have a surprise for LAX\u2019s Diamante<\/strong>? Well\u2026 Vanilla Vargas is your answer. Vargas will be teaming with her old friend Angel Fashion and El Vikingo (The Viking) Mike Mendoza<\/strong> to go against GFW\u2019s own LAX (Santana, Ortiz<\/strong> and Diamante<\/strong>). It seems that the sky’s the limit for Vargas.<\/p>\n

CWA reigns in Dorado \u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The third best promotion in Puerto Rico,\u00a0Caribbean Championship Wrestling,<\/strong> had a pretty good show in Dorado. As we reported last week, the company had Seth Rollins\u2019s student Joe Acer<\/strong>, who in CWA<\/strong> went against former WWC Tag Team Champion Lynx<\/strong>. The match was said to be great, with Acer impressing the crowd at Dorado. In other topics, Justin Dynamite<\/strong> retained his CWA Puerto Rican Championship against Bane. Dynamite is on a 200 days reign ride, with him being the brightest light for CWA. \u00a0Also, Los Apostadores<\/strong> (The Gamblers) retained their Tag Team Championship once again, this also marks their 200 days reign.<\/p>\n

WWL vs. WWC this weekend<\/strong><\/h2>\n

World Wrestling Council and World Wrestling League went head to head this weekend (7\/15). The company run by Carlos Colon had their show in Bayamon in the historic Pepin Cestero last night. The main event was WWC\u2019s Universal Champion Ray Gonzalez alongside his son Ray Jr. vs. Thunder and Lightning.

Also, Chicano vs. El Comandante (who ever that is), The Revolution vs. Enyel and Cuervo \u00a9 for the World Tag Team Championship and OT Fernandez defends the Jr. Title against Peter \u201cThe Bad Romance\u201d and Angel Cotto (son of Chicano).<\/p>\n
