**Adrianna Silva Guerrera**, better known by her stage name, **Lady Guerrera**, is a renowned Brazilian pro-wrestler and **Guada's** first opponent. She works for **La Vida Lucha**, a Mexican wrestling team.

## Appearance

**Adrianna** is a tan, young woman with tattoos on her abdomen and biceps. Her long, black hair is woven into two blonde-dyed braids. She has light blue eyes and freckles on her cheeks.

**Lady Guerrera** wears a number of different outfits throughout **Loba Loca**, both in civilian and wrestler clothing, but seems to favour crop tops which expose her abdomen and arms. These are usually accompanied by tights or trunks. On the ring, her outfit is colored white and adorned with a diamond motif on the chest and hips.

## Personality

After her introduction, **Lady Guerrera's** personality is initially very ambiguous. She has almost no spoken dialogue, her expressions variating between fairly neutral and a confident smirk. Her demeanor is professional, and she is presented as somewhat intimidating, being significantly taller than **Guada**.

When she re-appears in the story's later chapters, her attitude is far more cheery and relaxed. Her youthful energy and sense of humour are in many ways similar to **Guada's**.

She is also very excited to meet **Tigre** and claims to be a fan of his, despite showing complete indifference towards him in all their prior meetings. This may be a continuity error, or it may imply that **Lady Guerrera** feels the need to supress her emotions and adopt a tough, professional exterior in front of **La Lucha Vida** staff.

## History

**The following section contains heavy spoilers for the entirety of Loba Loca:**

### Prior to events of Loba Loca

Hailing from São Paulo, **Adrianna** becomes interested in lucha libre at a young age, introduced to the sport by her older brother. For a time, she's a samba dancer, performing in the Rio de Janeiro Sambodrome at age 15, but does not feel that this is the direction she wants to take in life. When she expresses her interest in wrestling to her father, who does not approve of the sport, he encourages her to pursue Brazilian jiu-jitsu instead. She performs well, winning a number of competitions.

Following the sudden death of her older brother in a vehicular accident, she realizes the fleetingness of life and decides to pursue her dreams while she still can. **Adrianna** begins searching for ways into wrestling, and is recruited by **La Vida Lucha**, who quickly put her to work on the ring in Mexico. When she becomes of age, she carelessly signs their contracts, which she later comes to regret. When the excitement of entering her dream career wears off, she realises she is being exploited, but can do little without her passport, which **La Vida Lucha** is keeping.

Shortly before her first appearance in **Loba Loca**, she arrives in America after a series of matches in Japan.

### Loba Loca Vol. 2

The comic introduces **Lady Guerrera** in the midst of a wrestling match, defeating an unnamed opponent to great fanfare. She and her team are approached by the retired **Tigre**, who convinces them to hold a match between **Adrianna** and **Guadalupe Mayflower**. They agree, on the condition that **Lady** will be the one to win the match.

### Loba Loca Vol. 3

**Adrianna** meets **Guada** for the first time, remarking on the girl's small size for a rudos-style wrestler. Together, they practice their choreography in the days leading up to their match. The fight ends up going off the rails when **Guada** breaks the agreement between **Tigre** and **La Vida Lucha**, disregards the choreography and attempts to win by genuinely overpowering her opponent. **Lady Guerrera** retaliates violently, beating **Guada** with her fists and throwing her out of the ring. What transpires afterwards is unclear, but it's implied that **Adrianna** was somewhat hurt in the fight, as a band-aid can be seen on her right cheek from that point onwards.

The **Vida Lucha** management is furious, and want **Tigre** to reimburse them for **Adrianna's** injuries. When **Guada** and **Tigre** aggressively dismiss them and drive away, however, they set out to find them and get revenge.

### Loba Loca Vol. 4

Adrianna is shown with the manager and workers of **La Vida Lucha**, who find out **Guada** is staying at the **Woodpecker Inn** by checking the location tagged on a photo she posted to her social media.

### Loba Loca Vol. 5

The following morning, **La Lucha Vida** drive into **Woodpecker Inn** to confront **Tigre** and **Guada**, while Lady Guerrera waits in one of their SUVs. As the situation escalates and a full-on fight breaks out, **Adrianna** notices **Guada** trying to sneak away in the confusion and cuts her off. When **Tigre** defeats the crowd of attackers, however, it's revealed that Lady had no bad intention. She cheerfully shows off her tattoos to **Guada**, then introduces herself and asks if she can join them on their trip.

In **Tigre's** car, **Adrianna** has some light-hearted banter with **Guada**, before opening up about her youth and the reason she ended up working for La Lucha Vida. She's happy to be free from their influence as her managers, but expresses concern about the fact they still have her passport. **Tigre** promises her that he will get it back.

When **Tigre** realises that **Julio**, a contestant from the reality-TV show **"House of Secrets"** is actually his former teammate, **Headache**, the group sets out to get in touch with him. They break into the villa where the show takes place and speak with Headache briefly before being confronted by two of the other contestants, **Quentin** and **Brad**. In the ensuing fight, **Lady Guerrera** helps incapacitate some of the security guards sent to detain them.

They are suddenly interrupted when an explosion from the villa's kitchen sets the house on fire. The fight stops immediately as everyone attempts to get themselves and an injured contestant to safety. Realising that **Tigre** isn't with them, **Guada** rushes back into the building, leaving **Lady Guerrera** to wait outside with the others.

### Loba Loca Vol. 6

When part of the building collapses into the villa's pool, **Adrianna** becomes concerned, thinking she saw **Guada** and **Tigre** inside. She is quickly proven right when they both emerge from the water. **Adrianna** helps pull Tigre out and carry him to safety, after which she stays with the injured until the arrival of emergency services.

An indeterminate amount of time after the incident, Adrianna accompanies **Guada** to **Tigre's** medical exam. It's there that he returns her passport, revealing that he and **Headache** confronted **La Lucha Vida** to retrieve it. **Adrianna** is moved to tears and thanks **Tigre** before he's taken away for his colonoscopy. Upon his return, she is relieved to hear that he's in good health.

Leaving to get coffee, **Adrianna** asks **Tigre** and **Guada** if they'd like her to bring them anything. They politely refuse.

## Trivia

* Her birthday is on the 7th of November.
* **Lady Guerrera** is a "*técnicos"*, the lucha libre equivilant of a *"face"*. These wrestlers are framed as heroic by showrunners and use formal combat styles, in contrast to *"rudos";* brawlers typically portrayed as villains. Lucha libre is distinct from U.S. pro-wrestling in that a wrestler's role as a *"heel*" or a *"face"* is strongly tied to their fighting style,
* When **Lady** is introduced by her real name in dialogue, it's written as **"Adriana"**, despite her passport later showing that it's spelled **"Adrianna"**.
* **Adrianna's** passport puts her date of birth as "19XX" (the last two digits being illegible), implying she was born before the year 2000. On **Twitter**, **RUN** has said that this is an error, and was supposed to read "20XX".
