The Guerrero family name is living on through the daughter of the late WWE legend Eddie Guerrero, Sherilyn.
For nearly one year, Sherilyn has dedicated herself to in-ring training at Reality of Wrestling, a school owned and operated by WWE Hall of Famer Booker T in Texas City, Texas. Now, she’s putting her hard work to the ultimate test as she prepares for her formal professional wrestling debut.
The stage for Sherilyn’s milestone match was set at ROW’s Sherri Martel Classic event, where an irate Mystii Marks confronted the generational talent. Marks, a 5-year wrestling veteran, blamed Sherilyn for both her last-minute entry into the 2026 Sherri Martel Classic tournament and her corresponding loss to WWE NXT star Layla Diggs. Her words then escalated to physicality, with Sherilyn on the receiving end of a series of right hands, stomps, and a sit-out slam.
When Sherilyn eventually reached her feet, a major challenge was issued: Sherilyn vs. Marks on Saturday, Nov. 14. Reality of Wrestling later made the bout official, confirming it as the in-ring debut of “Latina Heat.”

The timing of Sherilyn’s first match holds added significance as it falls just one day after the 21st anniversary of her father’s death. Eddie Guerrero, a former WWE Champion, died of heart failure on Nov. 13, 2005. He was 38.
As she soon sets out to carve her own legacy as a performer, Sherilyn has made it clear that she intends to keep the “Guerrero” name a part of her identity. “I’ll definitely always represent my family,” she recently told the “2 Hard 2 Fast Podcast.” “I can’t run away from it. Wouldn’t want to if I could, but I also feel like along with carrying the name, I really want to make my own pathway. I feel like I’m able to be me and be a Guerrero.”
“That’s a lot that took me to get to that point because everyone expects this to go a certain way,” she continued. “And I’m like, no, it’s actually going to go my way, because luckily, my dad paved that opportunity for me to where I was able to do the normal life and then have wrestling when it was time and it truly felt good in my heart.”
Five months after Eddie’s death, WWE honored him with a posthumous induction into its Hall of Fame. His oldest daughter, Shaul, wrestled in WWE’s former developmental territory known as Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW) from 2011-2012.
