Eight Things I Learnt at a WWE Live Event

7) Zelina Vega Will Turn Andrade Cien Almas into a Star

Make no mistake who’s driving this partnership. Almas may have the wrestling chops and natural athleticism – but Vega is the beating heart of this tandem. She has the charisma. She has the personality. She determines whether the fans invest in the wrestler or not. And man, does she do an amazing job.

Byron Saxton was on announcer duty all night. As he was making the requisite introductions prior to this match, Vega interrupted him. She cut a terrific promo that served to hype up Almas and run down their opponents (they faced Rusev and Lana in a Mixed Tag Team Match).

And that’s not where her influence stopped either. Throughout the match, she was showboating around the ring, hurling insults at Rusev and engaging with the audience.

She is a star maker and Almas will benefit from tagging along for the ride.
