Zelina Vega sends heartfelt message to WWE Universe after SmackDown betrayal
Zelina Vega has shared a heartfelt message to the WWE Universe following this week's SmackDown.
Rey Mysterio defended the United States Championship against Logan Paul at Crown Jewel 2023. The match ended in controversy, as Santos Escobar left a pair of brass knuckles on the ring apron. Logan Paul used them to his advantage and knocked out Rey Mysterio to win the title.
This past Friday on SmackDown, Santos Escobar unleashed an attack on Rey Mysterio and slammed the Hall of Famer's knee into the steel steps. Vega was distraught during the attack and received backstage praise for her acting skills during the segment.
Mysterio announced that he underwent successful knee surgery this week on social media, and Escobar responded by telling him to never return to SmackDown.
Zelina Vega took to Twitter to send a message after a difficult week for the LWO faction. She told her fans that she loved them and that they had put a smile on her face during this past week.
"I love you guys 🥹 you’ve made me smile so big this past week," she posted.
