WWE Chairman Vince McMahon sees Zelina Vega as the next Stephanie McMahon

Zelina Vega

Zelina Vega has revealed that Vince McMahon was full of praises for her in a recent meeting. She added that the WWE Chairman even compared her to his own daughter Stephanie McMahon.

While talking on D-Von Dudley's recent Table Talk podcast, she said:

“If the quarantine didn’t happen, not that I wouldn’t have had these opportunities, but it may have taken a little longer. Also, Becky is having her baby. There are people that are not here and that leaves spots for people to fill. I was always like, give me the ball, and if I drop it, screw me, but you lose nothing. I was always ready for that. I think it started with Drew when we had that back and forth. He was my other promo half. It was perfect. When it happened with him, it was magic. It’s interesting because before quarantine happened, Vince would always say ‘you are one of my favorites. You are one of the reasons I watch [WWE] Raw and I love your character.’ It was such an honor to hear that. He said ‘you remind me of Stephanie because she is always working out there and you are a machine.’” (h/t WrestlingNews.co)

Zelina Vega slapped Asuka after her title defence against Mickie James this past week on Monday Night RAW and could be in line for a singles push. WWE Clash of Champions takes place this month and Vega could be the one challenging Asuka for the title.
