WWE Women’s United States Champion Zelina Vega spoke with Fox News Digital about her experiences. She discussed what it feels like to be part of wrestling history as the Women’s U.S. Champion and the first Queen of the Ring.
Vega said, “It feels amazing. When I was growing up, I just wanted to be a part of it. And of course, I wanted to be champion. I made this huge thing in my mind when I was a kid, I was like, ‘I’m gonna be champion, this is gonna happen for me.’ I didn’t see a Plan B in my mind. Now, it’s like, not only did you make it, not only you’re champion, you’re also a part of history. First-ever Queen of the Ring, like I never thought that was gonna happen. So, it’s still shocking me but also that eight-year-old Thea that was like trying to get all of this sorted out in my mind. I didn’t see a Plan B, I was so stubborn. I was like, ‘No, this is happening.’ So, proving her right, it feels like the most amazing feeling.”
