They were the end of 1979, on December 23, to be more precise, and it was very cold in Naucalpan and Mexico City, but in Four road bullfighting Things were different, the human heat for what was going to happen that Sunday night: Canekthe Mayan Prince, would make a successful defense of the full World Cup UWA before that Fúrico Hindu Tiger Jeet Singhin what would be the first of several duels between them. And in the semifinal shift, the nationalist atmosphere had already put himself at the top, because after Vickie Williams throughout the year He was struggling (he had made successful defenses of the UWA Women's World Championship before the incredible southern panther and Chela Salazar, the latter had also shaved her in the four -cormous enclosure), now, now, After losing in relay the 16 with Joyce Goldo against Lola Gónzalez and the Tapatía Estela Molina, she was challenging her for the title.
Estella arrived in a Beautiful Gabán, a Mexican pink fighting team and with a fighting rooster in his armGo image! A true Mexican, a true fighter, A true Mexican fighter! The contest was stormy for fans, who always supported Estela, suffered before Vickie's attacks, but the unwavering spirit of the Mexican did not succumb, and took her until she got the unthinkable: defeating the American monarch. The triumph of Estela Molina rumbled to Earth's centers, we had a new world champion, We had the first Mexican world champion, In a time where things were even more unequal to women, Estela Molina raised her hand and proudly stood as the first Mexican universal monarch in wrestling.
The belt lasted little at its waist (just over three months), but The triumph was eternal for the great trailborn in Ciudad Guzmán, Jalisco, on March 3, 1942 with the name of Evelia Pérez, and who had a brilliant race since the sixties of the last century. Among his main achievements were already the hair of Charito Silva and Southern Panther. The title defended itself before the very hard Chass the Romero and before Vickie Williams and also the foreigner Little Heart.
In July 1980 he managed to gird the Women's Women's Championship Before his great rival, and his great companion, Southern Panther. How many memorable struggles of these two ladies! Whether it was as a team or face to face, both delivered without leaving anything in the dressing room. Estela is also remembered for being the “SUPERRIDO MOTHER” of which perhaps it is the best female group of all time: the murderous nuns, along with Lola González and Rossy Moreno, although the span of Estela was brief, being replaced by Rosa Maria. He was also a female champion of couples of the State of Mexico next to Marina Rey. In 1982 he rapted Queen Gallegos in the Neza Arena. Estela was also an important part of that mythical function of December 14, 1986, when women returned through the big door to fight the sands of Mexico City.
His career concluded at the end of the eighties, well, his career as a fighter, because Estela always remained linked to the environment. In fact, in a fact that little is remembered, it was that she was the first woman to put on the zebra shirt and serve as a referee in the Mexico Arena in some struggles in the late eighties and nineties.
He had many tributes in life, all deserved all, since, although it was not one of the pioneers in women's wrestling, if It was a key pillar in the consolidation of sport show in terms of equality and equity. Today we wake up with the unfortunate news of its departure from this earthly plane.
Rest in peace Estela Molina, you, the first Mexican world champion, and your legacy, will live forever.
