During the "Women's Evolution Battle Royal", Zelina Vega and Nia Jax had teamed up to eliminate as many wrestlers as possible, and at one stage Nia Jax and Zelina Vega were the only ones left.

During the finish of the match, Nia Jax was supposed to gorilla slam Vega out of the ring. Nia picked up Zelina and threw her out of the ring so hard that she was not able to control the fall, and ended up with a concussion.

The concussion suffered by Zelina was so bad that she has been out of wrestling since then, and there's no date set for her return to wrestling.

Nia on the other hand, because she did win the Battle Royal will go on to face Ronda Rousey for the championship.
