Professional wrestling career
She began her training for a professional wrestling career at the age of only 13, training in the wrestling school of Francisco Gaitan.[2] She made her professional wrestling debut in 2006 and received additional training from Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) trainers Máscara Mágica II, Gran Cochisse and El Satánico[1] She began wrestling as an enmascarada, or masked wrestler using the ring name Silueta (Spanish for "Silhouette") and joined CMLL in 2008. CMLL decided to book Silueta in a storyline with ruda newcomer Zeuxis that developed over the summer of 2010. The storyline started out with the two being on opposite sides of a number of Best two out of three falls six-woman tag team matches where Zeuxis would focus on trying to unmask her opponent, going so far as to rip Silueta's mask apart, causing Siluta to respond in kind. The storyline led to a Luchas de Apuestas, or "Bet match" between the two where the loser of the match would be forced to unmask and state their birth name after the loss as per Lucha Libre traditions.[3] Zeuxis was successful, winning two of the three falls to force Silueta to unmask and reveal that her birthname was Joana Guadalupe Jiménez Hernández.[4] Through her work in CMLL Silueta was invited to wrestle in Japan on several occasions, primarily for Universal Woman's Pro Wrestling Reina (Reina for short). On October 11, 2011 Silueta won an eight-woman torneo cibernetico elimination match to earn a match for the CMLL-Reina International Junior Championship. The match also included Dallys la Caribena, Goya Kong, Kiara, Lady Apache, La Seductora, Princesa Blanca abd Princesa Sujei. The following week, during CMLL's show in Arena Mexico Silueta defeated Ray to become the second ever CMLL-Reina International Junior Champion.[5]
