Lacey Ryan
Lacey Ryan is no stranger to putting in the work and 2020 was no different. Ryan is a regular on the West Coast scene, especially for Championship Wrestling From Hollywood. Her long-running feud with Heather Monroe is a highlight for the company.
Ryan is strong, athletic and fierce wrestler with an inventive and innovate arsenal. Her string of impressive performances make her a hot prospect for any company and if rumours are to be believed WWE has expressed their interest.
Ryan jumped straight back into the ring as soon the scene reopened. She debuted for Shimmer and Mission Pro Wrestling. Ryan reached the finals to crown the first-ever MPW champion. She would lose out out the veteran La Rosa Negra but it was another stand out performance for this rising star.
Alex Gracia
Alex Gracia is a regular on the Texas independent scene since 2018 after graduating from the Texas Wrestling School. When independent wrestling started again Gracia hit the scene hard bringing her fun and Lucha Libre style to multiple companies in quick succession.
Gracia came into prominence toward the end of the year by regularly appearing on AEW television and finished 2020 on high with a match against Hikaru Shida on Dynamite.
Be it on AEW or the independent scene, one thing is for sure, we will be hearing the name, Alex Gracia throughout 2021.
Laynie Luck
The Party Unicorn, Laynie Luck is the life and soul of the ring whenever she wrestles. She may bring the fun to the show but when it is time to go in between the ropes she’s lethal.
Luck possesses a move set of vicious strikes, suplexes and high-flying attacks, which has seen her conquer many promotions. Luck is currently the Freelance Underground Independent Champion and Zelo Pro Women’s Champion where she had held their respective titles since 2019, which is an incredible accomplishment despite the break.
Luck will be wanting to start 2021 in the same way as she finished 2020 by successfully defending her championships against all-comers. Keep an eye out of the Party Unicorn, you will not be disappointed.
Lady Frost
Lady Frost looks and carries herself like the star she is destined to be. Frost enters her third year in the business looking to capitalize on a great run at the end of 2020 where she appeared on AEW Dark twice.
As her ring name suggests Frost boasts a superhero quality and look that makes her a stand out talent. Be it singles action or in a tag team with her husband, Lady Frost never fails to impress in the ring with her strong, fast and athletic style.
Expect to hear a lot more about Lady Frost thoughout the year.
La Rosa Negra
La Rosa Negra is an eighteen-year veteran who has wrestled all over the globe after making her name in Puerto Rico for the first nine years of her career.
Since then she has performed for multiple promotions such as NWA, Shine STARDOM and Marvelous. More recently she has established herself in Thunder Rosa’s all-female company Mission Pro Wrestling. La Rosa Negra used all of her skill and experience to become the first-ever MPW company in an excellent Best Two Out Of Three Falls match against Lacey Ryan. Hopefully, the title win will give her the recognition and reward she deserves.
La Rosa Negra is joy to watch in the ring. She is athletically gifted mixing high flying offense with explosive American and Japanese strong style add this to her MMA and Boxing skills and years of wrestling experience she is a brilliant and brutal perfromer.
