Indie sensation Santana Garrett works WWE NXT match, prepares for Chile, India, Japan

Top indie star Santana Garrett made her return to WWE NXT on Thursday, Jan. 7 during its TV tapings at Full Sail Live at Full Sail University in Winter Park, near Orlando.

Santana, ranked No.4 in PWI’s Top 50 women’s wrestlers, battled Japanese wrestling standout Asuka in the semi-main event of the last set of TV tapings. It was a back and forth match that showcased two of the world's best female wrestlers which will air on Feb. 3 on WWE Network.

Santana appeared on WWE NXT in 2013, wrestling current WWE Divas Champion Charlotte. Since then, she has competed all around the world and won multiple major women’s championships including the NWA, SHINE and Wonder of Stardom titles.

Santana, a (Central Florida) Ocala native, will be returning to Japan for STARDOM in February. After that, she will tour India for two weeks with Great Khali’s CWE. She will also be returning to Chile in April for Hugo Savinovich’s event, featuring Rey Mysterio, Jr., and she will tour England, France and Spain in May.

Santana continues to compete in the United States and is currently taking bookings through late July.
