Before they made their way to the WWE, both Zelina Vega and Angel Garza worked for Impact Wrestling. Vega joined first, signing a contract with the promotion in 2011 and debuting as part of the Mexican America stable.

The group consisted of Latino wrestlers with Hernandez as the leader. Vega was given the name of Rosita and was partnered with Sarita. They would enter in to a feud with TNA's top female tag team faction 'The Beautiful People', eventually winning the TNA Tag team titles within months of their arrival. They would lose the title to Ms.Tessmacher and Tara after a four-month reign.

TNA's questionable booking soon affected the women's division when male wrestler Eric Young was booked to win the tag titles alongside ODB - Rosita and Sarita would unsuccessfully challenge the champion, that too in a steel cage, but were defeated. The Mexican America stable would dissolve after Hernandez turned face and Rosita was let go by the company after her contract expired in 2013.

Angel Garza, meanwhile, debuted in TNA (now known as Impact) in 2017 as Garza, Jr. He stayed with the promotion for just a year, challenging for the X-Division and tag team titles, but not winning either. His personality was never allowed to shine through and despite having matches with TNA main eventers like John Morrison, decided to leave the company in favour of WWE NXT a year later.
