Olvera made her professional wrestling debut in December 1997 after training with Super Muñeco, Satánico and Adonis Salazar, whom she would later marry.

In the late 1990s and early 2000s CMLL did not focus on their women's division, which cause La Amapola to also work for a variety of other minor Mexican promotions.

Even after the mask loss Amapola and Dark Angel faced off many times, keeping the rivalry alive for years.

[5] Subsequently La Amapola has been the top Ruda (villainess or heel) of the CMLL Women's division, defending the title against such wrestlers as Luna Mágica, Dark Angel, Princess Blanca and Lady Apache and Marcela on several occasions.

[7] On the October 12, 2012, Super Viernes show, La Amapola defeated Japanese wrestler León to win the Reina-CMLL International Championship.

Originally the focus was on the Mexican National Women's Championship that Estrellita held but over time it developed into a more personal and intense storyline between the two.
