Zelina Vega on the moment not feeling real: “It didn’t feel real until I heard the bell ring. I hate crying. I’m like ‘Gangstas don’t cry,’ but the two moments where I allowed myself to be in the moment were the ones where I let myself be the most raw.”

On feeling like she was her eight-year-old self: “I felt like my 8-year-old self popped out and was living in that moment.”

The win marks the first singles title of Vega’s WWE career.
