WWE dropped a banger of a premium live event last night from Puerto Rico, and fans will be talking about both the entire PPV and several individual moments for years to come. Megastar Bad Bunny delivered an iconic entrance, followed by maybe the best celebrity match wrestling has ever seen alongside Damian Priest. We got surprise appearances to enormous pops for Puerto Rican legends Carlito and Savio Vega, but for me, the single moment I’ll remember most fondly was an overwhelmed Zelina Vega crying in the ring while fans applauded her like she was a prime Stone Cold Steve Austin.
The thirty-two-year-old Vega has had a really nice career both inside and outside WWE up to this point. She’s a former Tag Team Champion, has won Queen Of The Ring and has had really nice moments as both a manager and an in-ring performer. But what happened last night will almost certainly be the image fans remember her by. Appearing in her family’s native Puerto Rico, dressed in the Puerto Rican flag and dedicating the match to her father who passed away during the terrorist attacks on 9/11, Vega got the ovation of a lifetime. You can watch the beautiful moment below…
