Zelina Vega says she had restrictions with her WWE promos because she couldn’t “outshine” others

While speaking to Ring The Belle, former WWE star Zelina Vega was asked what changes there would be to her Xelina persona outside of the company. Here is what she had to say…

“It won’t be that different, but it’ll at least allow people to see the promos, like, I’m the mouth. That’s just what, like, the promos that people never really got to see in me, that’s absolutely going to be seen. Like, the matches that I’ve wanted to have, and just being able to show, like, I don’t have any more restrictions. Like, I don’t have a, ‘Well, you can get in there and have this promo, but you can’t outshine this person,’ or, ‘You can’t do this,’ or, ‘You can’t wear that,’ or, ‘You can’t have your wigs look this color.’ You can’t—like, it’s literally freedom.

But also, I looked at Christina Aguilera back in the day when she turned into Xtina. It’s like she embraced that new, authentic, sexy version of herself and said, ‘f*ck you guys, I’m going to be me,’ and that’s how I came up with that.”
