Red Velvet has built her reputation through athleticism, resilience, and championship success.
The Colombian-American wrestler began training in 2015 at Fighting Evolution Wrestling (FEW) in Miami under JB Cool. She made her in-ring debut in 2016 and quickly captured the FEW Women’s Championship, marking one of the first major milestones of her career.
Her momentum eventually led her to All Elite Wrestling, where she debuted on AEW Dark in 2020 before appearing on AEW Dynamite against Hikaru Shida. As her role in the company grew, she became part of the faction The Baddies alongside Jade Cargill and Kiera Hogan.
Velvet continued building her résumé in Ring of Honor, where she made history in the women’s division. In 2024 she captured the ROH Women’s World Television Championship, beginning what would become a record-breaking reign of 481 days, the longest in the title’s history.
After returning from injury in 2025, Velvet defeated Mercedes Moné at Final Battle to regain the championship, beginning her second reign as ROH Women’s World Television Champion.
From her early days on the independent scene to championship success in AEW and ROH, Red Velvet continues to prove herself as one of the most consistent competitors in the division.
During Women’s History Month, Queen of the Canvas highlights athletes who continue shaping the present and future of women’s wrestling.
