The WWE might not consider Gloria Alvarado Nava your typical "Diva", but Lucha Libre fans love her as Luchadora Goya Kong.
Gloria is five foot seven and weighs in at 187 pounds.
She is a third generation wrestler and part of the Alvarado wrestling family, which includes over 20 active and retired luchadores and luchadoras.
I bet their family reunions are a blast!
Goya was trained by Hijo del Gladiador and made her wrestling debut in 2007, as a masked luchadora wrestling matches for Asistencia, Asesoría y Administración (AAA).
She left AAA and went to Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) in 2010.
La Chica del Plata ("The Silver Girl") as she is nicknamed lost her mask to Princesa Blanca in an Infierno en el Ring steel cage match.
Eight women went in and only Goya and Blanca were left when Blanca pinned her and took her mask.
In 2013, Goya won the Trofeo Arena Coliseo 70 Aniversario, defeating Marcela, Estrellita, Dalys La Caribeña, Silueta, La Amapola, Princesa Sugey, Princesa Blanca, Zeuxis and Tiffany.
No small feat.
