Overall:
Pass/Fail:
Lead
"Caballero was a relative of professional wrestler Irma González as well as González's daughter Irma Aguilar although it is unclear exactly how they were related." - seems odd. In the infobox, it states that she is niece to
Irma González
. Please clarify this
"She started out as a masked wrestler," - began her career
"but lost her mask in 1958 to Irma González, but would later wrestle under the mask again." - repetition of the word "but"
"including Magdalena Caballero. Caballero would work" Try not to have the last word of a sentence start the next one like this.
"Her reign lasted less than a year as Irma González won the championship later that year." - in 1955.
"she would at times wrestle under her real name and at other times still use the "La Dama Enmascarada" name," - and sometimes the
"After the mask loss" - the loss of her mask,
"despite not being masked anymore." - no longer being masked.
"Due to very few records of wrestling from that period of time" - from that time period
"it's uncertain who defeated La Dama" - it is uncertain as to who
"On January 22, 1961, La Dama Enmascarada evened the score with Irma González" - the text in bold is not particularly encyclopedic
"as she teamed up with Chabela Romero to take on the team of Irma González and Toña la Tapatía" - repetition of "team"
"Empresa Mexicana de Lucha Libre (EMLL) show in Guadalajara." - the acroynms are not needed since they are not repeated elsewhere
Personal life
"Caballero and husband Andrés Ramos had a total of six children together before their divorce in the 1950s" - the text in bold is not needed
"Magdalena Caballero died on March 11, 2006," - what did she die from? Do we know?

MWright96 thank you for your review, I will look over the comments and made the appropriate updates. Note, I am going to be quite busy over the weeekend so I may not get to the feedback for a day or two. MPJ-DK (talk) 16:10, 25 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
MWright96 sorry it took me a bit, I had to e-mail someone who could actually see the archives of the newspaper since the article they sent me way back did not include the page number. I got it all that I believe I've addressed all issues. MPJ-DK (talk) 01:31, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@MPJ-DK: Now promoting to GA class; I've made one small change to the prose. MWright96(talk) 08:08, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
