Zelina is hopeful WWE will run an event in Puerto Rico

Zelina Vega was born in Queens, New York, but is of Puerto Rican descent and is very proud of her heritage. In a recent interview, Vega expressed her desire for WWE to run a major event in Puerto Rico, where she is hopeful the company will let her challenge for a world title.

Vega may not be factored into this weekend's Elimination Chamber event in Montreal, but that doesn't mean she won't have anything to do at WrestleMania 39 in a couple of months. She did have a very nice showing in the Women's Rumble matchup, where she lasted over 11 minutes and even had an elimination, a much better time than Chelsea Green.

One thing is for certain, Vega is confident enough to be a top player in the women's division.
