The comments, originally appearing on rderudo.com in Spanish, have been translated by PWInsider by way of Wrestlinginc.com. They’re a bit hard to pin down but the gist seems to be that she’s been a victim of abuse before and won’t be held down by people who dislike her. She claims to have blacked out during the match and doesn’t seem to recall hurting Rosemary. Here are the comments:
“This have been very difficult days for me,” Sexy Star said. “Last Saturday, I was in a championship fight; was very hard. I think everything got out of hand. I don’t know, I am still confused with the situation. I’d like to remain quiet and when the time is right I will speak on the subject.
“Men and women want to finish me, make me retire from the sport. I am still here, as I stated in the beginning, I will not stop representing all those women that have been mistreated physically or psychologically. I believe that I have to stronger. If at a moment I went through depression and got out of it, I will also get out of this one. I was doing what I had to do, what the people deserved, to go all in clawing until the end. That’s what happened, I submitted her. It appears the girl is injured, I don’t know, [it] is not something I am aware off. That’s all I can say.”
In case you haven’t see it, here’s the incident from the weekend:
Opinion: I’m really not sure what she’s trying to say. How exactly is attacking someone after a match is over (as in after Rosemary had tapped out and after the referee told her to let go) standing up for victims of abuse? The comments really don’t make a ton of sense and even if the part about her blacking out is true, these statements don’t exactly justify what she did.
