Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide's TripleMania XXV event in August 2017 made headlines for multiple reasons, one of which was the controversy surrounding the four-way match for the Reina de Reinas Championship between champion Sexy Star, Ayako Hamada, Lady Shani, and Rosemary.
The match lasted about ten minutes before Sexy Star won by making Rosemary tap out to an armbar. However, Rosemary endured serious injuries to her arm due to the severity of the armbar, with reports pouring in that Sexy Star legitimately injured Rosemary during the match. PWInsider claimed that Star and another contestant, Lady Shani, were already shooting on each other during the contest.
Rosemary posted a statement following the incident and accused Sexy Star of legitimately injuring her in the ring. While support poured in for Rosemary from fans and wrestlers, Sexy Star faced severe criticism for her actions, with influential personalities like Road Dogg and Cody Rhodes declaring that Sexy Star would never work anywhere near them. AAA had to take disciplinary action against her and stripped her of the Reina de Reinas Championship.
Sexy Star followed up with an explanation of her own, but she was pretty unapologetic. She defended her actions, painted herself as the victim of cyberbullying from fans, and accused other wrestling personalities of trying to ruin her career.
