Red Velvett, known professionally as Stephanie M. Cardona, is an accomplished professional wrestler and dancer who carved her path from the independent circuit to becoming a prominent figure in All Elite Wrestling (AEW) and Ring of Honor (ROH), where she currently holds the ROH Women’s World Television Championship. After beginning her wrestling training in 2015 at Fighting Evolution Wrestling (FEW) under JB Cool, Red Velvett made her professional wrestling debut on March 24, 2016. She quickly established her presence on the independent circuit, capturing the FEW Women’s Championship on August 19, 2016, in a triple threat match against Jade and Rebel, a title she held until January 21, 2017.
After sustaining an injury in June 2022, she made her return to AEW television on November 23, 2022. In late 2023, Velvett expanded her presence to Ring of Honor (ROH) with her debut in the promotion. Red Velvett achieved a significant career milestone in February 2024, entering the inaugural ROH Women’s World Television Championship tournament and advancing through multiple competitive rounds. This culminated on July 26, 2024, when she captured the prestigious ROH Women’s World Television Championship, defeating Billie Starkz at Death Before Dishonor.
This victory marked her first reign with the title, solidifying her as a prominent champion in Ring of Honor while maintaining her integral role within All Elite Wrestling.
