WWE Zelina Vega Came Out In Royal Rumble Wearing Juri’s Outfit; Also A Commentator For Street Fighter 6

Here’s a two-for-one story focused on WWE’s Zelina Vega/Thea Trinidad, a known fan of fighting games when she’s not wrestling.

First up, during this year’s WWE Royal Rumble event (where 30 wrestlers come in one-by-one for a last-man standing fight), she appeared in a Street Fighter 6 Juri outfit for the women’s Royal Rumble division.

She walked out for her entrance to the WWE Royal Rumble all Juri-like and even scored a ringout by recreating a part of the fighter’s Critical Art. Yeah, you know the one with the feet.
