WWE Superstar Zelina Vega recently took to Twitter to share a throwback picture, recalling her first encounter with AEW star Andrade El Idolo.
While Zelina is currently a part of the RAW brand, she started out in TNA/IMPACT Wrestling. She signed with the Stamford-based company in 2017 and was paired with Andrade (fka Andrade "Cien" Almas). The star later transitioned to her most recent wrestling moniker, Queen Zelina, after winning the Queen's Crown Tournament in 2021.
This week, Zelina posted a photo on Twitter from back in 2011. She also detailed how the image was from the same day she met the former United States Champion for the first time.
"I miss Mexico! #DiadelaIndependenciadeMexico This picture was taken in 2011, so thankful to @SSDarkAngel 💜🙏🏽 The training was some of the most intense I’ve ever had but SO MUCH FUN! Actually, this was the same day I met @AndradeElIdolo for the 1st time lol ."
