Zelina Vega is a talent making her way up in the business, and has shone brightly wherever she has been placed. Whether it was dominating in TNA, managing Andrade 'Cien' Almas or competing on the main roster, she has always got the fans talking. That is a great trait of Vega's, but for the most part, she has played a heel.
Because of that, fans have picked up a specific view of her as a person, but that isn't necessarily the case. There is a lot more to Vega than meets the eye, which is something that is clear from learning more about her through pictures of her life.

This image gives a great behind-the-scenes glimpse at Zelina Vega preparing herself for a show. Seeing talent walk backstage before a match always gives a rare insight into what a person is like. It gives a glimpse at a wrestler in their most focused moment, getting in the zone to compete.

It's a great insight into how they were all feeling in this spot, showing the passion and energy that they had about being able to compete. Normally fans only get to see the talent in character having conversations, so this is a unique look at them as people, just breaking down the business.
8 A Passionate Gamer
Video games have become a huge part of the lifestyle of a modern professional wrestler, with the vast majority of talents enjoying playing games. It is something that has become popular with audiences, as they like to watch the wrestlers playing those games online where they can.
Zelina Vega is one of those that shares her love of video games online via her Twitch stream. This image showcases her doing exactly that, which is something that a lot of people won't be aware of if they're not operating in that sphere.
7 An Acting Career
Another side of Zelina Vega that a lot of people do not know about is that she has done some acting work. This took place in the movie, Fighting With My Family, which was all about the life and career of Paige. It was Florence Pugh who took on that role, and the talented actress did a great job with it.
But she did happen to have a scene with Zelina. The big moment of the movie was when Paige won the Divas Championship from AJ Lee. With AJ gone from the company by that point, it was Zelina who acted as her for that scene, with Tessa Blanchard doing a lot of Pugh's scenes at that moment.
6 Love Of Cosplay
A lot of fans are likely aware that Zelina Vega enjoys doing cosplay, as that is something that she puts into a lot of wrestling gear. It is common to see her dressed as different video game characters for big shows like the Royal Rumble or WrestleMania.
However, that isn't just something that she does for the sake of the WWE Universe. Cosplay is a massive part of her life outside of the ring, with this being something that she does regularly.
5 Taking Time For Romance
A lot of wrestling fans aren't aware of the relationship between Zelina Vega and former WWE Superstar Aleister Black. Because she always worked against him during that period of her career, a lot of people didn't put the two of them together as a pair.
However, they are married, and their connection is something that can be seen in this photograph. The two of them are backstage, just having a moment of romance as they cuddle, which is a side of both gimmicks that fans wouldn't normally expect to witness.
4 Hanging Out At WrestleMania 38
Zelina Vega being shown backstage is something that fans don't always get to see, but this picture brings that from WrestleMania 38. This image gives a great example about how much effort she puts into the gear that she wears, with Zelina always making this an important factor.
The effort that she puts in is always appreciated by fans, but it's not something that can be seen properly without pictures like this. These details are important, and that is what separates the top WWE stars from other independent wrestlers.
3 Friendship Moments
A lot of the time wrestlers are presented as rivals, and people that do not like each other. However, that isn't the case in reality, as this picture highlights. This showcases several wrestlers together, just hanging out as friends, which showcases the connection that the roster has.
While The IIconics may no longer be in WWE, they were able to create a great bond with wrestlers, which is good to see. Fans like to know which wrestlers get along outside of the ring, and clearly these three are friends of Vega's.
2 Model Work
There is no doubt that Zelina Vega is a beautiful woman, therefore it should not come as a huge surprise that she has done some modelling work as well. This just so happens to be for her husbands own range of clothing that he created, with Vega promoting it as best she can.
Here she gets to hangout with Simone Johnson and Rhea Ripley, who are two wrestlers that she does get along with outside of the ring, while also doing a little work as well.
1 Respect From The Great One
The Rock is one of the greatest names in WWE history, and anytime someone gets a stamp of approval from him it means a lot. That it's something that Zelina Vega has received during her career, as she and The Rock get on away from the business.
Vega has often visited The Rock on set for his movie and television projects, and it is clear that the People's Champion has got a lot of respect for the current WWE Superstar, which is something that a lot of fans may not know.
