Hey, everyone!

My name is Celine and I’m the newest contributor to VasquezSports.com. I’m a 21 year old journalist and writer out of Southern California who has a passion for all things sports, with professional wrestling and MMA holding a special place in my heart.

I was born and raised a San Francisco 49ers fan so I bleed red and gold. While I’m a writer, music lover, photographer, and film addict, pro wrestling especially holds special to me.

I remember growing up and hearing such legendary names of famous professional wrestlers as Hulk Hogan and Macho Man. They seemed so strong, amazing, and athletic, so I’d casually watch the World Wrestling Federation and World Championship Wrestling. As I grew older, the Attitude Era came and I fell in love with The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin. I remember learning about the Four Horsemen during the classic NWA era of wrestling and I have memories of the nWo and with the likes of Scott Hall and Kevin Nash along with Booker T and Goldberg.

But it wasn’t until the summer of 2005, July to be exact, when I fell in love with the WWE…World Wrestling Entertainment, with the Dominick storyline with the late, great Eddie Guerrero and Rey Mysterio. I saw familiar faces like Chris Jericho and the Undertaker from my youth, and some new ones, too, like John Cena and Randy Orton.

Soon, I was hooked and have been a proud fan ever since.

I received a shirt from my first WWE Live Event that said, “WWE…An Experience Like No Other” and I realized how amazingly true that was.

I admire, love, adore, and respect every single professional wrestler. Be it the WWE, TNA Impact, ROH, NJPW, the indies, I love them all. They are on the road around 300 days a year, putting their bodies on the line, away from their families, doing something that they love to do and doing it for the fans. Call it fake, call it scripted, call it stupid, whatever you want, but to me, it’s simply amazing. The blood, sweat, and even tears that they endure. All that goes into making this entertainment spectacle come to life. The thrill. The rush. The strength. The athleticism. The lessons taught to inspire all of us to be more hard working, focused, and dedicated, proving that such attributes can lead us to becoming amazing individuals in life with dedication. The passion alone. It is one of my many loves, so long live wrestling.

Currently, my favorites include Dean Ambrose, Roman Reigns, Randy Orton, Brock Lesnar and the Wyatt Family, with AJ Lee and Paige among my favorite divas while Austin Aries, Bobby Lashley, and Gail Kim are my favorites from TNA Impact.
