Hey guys, Welcome back to Wrestling world! Today, I wanted to talk about a few stories
that have really started up some big discussion in the wrestling community
Which are these two big stories regarding Zelina Vega and Braun Strowman
So let’s start things off with Zelina Vega
Zelina Vega is one of most promising WWE Superstars on the main roster
Zelina Vega spent the last few years of her career as a manager, but Zelina Vega has finally
broke free and is now a full time competitor over on Smackdown
Zelina already noted on twitter that she is coming after the Smackdown women’s title
and thinks it would look amazing around her waist
So everything is going well for Zelina Vega in WWE
Zelina Vega was at the center of discussions this week over the new paid content subscription
page she made over on OnlyFans
We know about the chaos that’s going right now between WWE, The Superstars, and third
party platforms
Some WWE Superstars were streaming and had others things like YouTube channels for a
handful of years now
But that all changed this year alone. It was no longer a few select superstars that were
streaming and had channels...literally the entire roster started streaming and creating
pages on these third party platforms this year, so that’s when it seemed like it caught
WWE’s attention
That’s when that ban was supposed to go out causing WWE superstars to either shut
the pages down or hand over the ownership to these pages
Everyone thinks of Twitch,YouTube, and cameo right away when it comes to the third party
rule, but what also seems to apply to the third part rule is paid content subscription
platforms like what Zelina Vega is starting up here
Now obviously platforms like these have this overall bad perception online of being a certain
way, but Zelina made that clear right from the start that her page is not going to be
like that at all
On top of being a full time WWE Superstar, she also streams, and she’s also very big
on cosplaying and doing all these different photoshoots for the costumes
The photoshoot sets obviously have to be expensive to put together, so that’s why Zelina is
looking to make it part of the subscription for her fans
Of course because of the third party rules, the WWE persona of “Zelina Vega” has nothing
to do with the new page she’s creating
She obviously has it under her real name and it’s in no way connected to the WWE character:
“Zelina Vega”
It’s interesting and got a lot of people talking because there no current WWE superstar,
man or woman, that’s on those platforms
So who knows? Maybe Zelina becomes a trend setter and other WWE Superstars will follow
in her footsteps and join these paid content platforms
Have to bring it up and question it because thats how everything else started for the
WWE Superstars with twitch, YouTube, and cameo
No one was doing those things at first, but when everyone saw the success that the first
few superstars were having, every WWE Superstar jumped on board and created a cameo and started
streaming
So who knows if that will happen here. Maybe other superstars were hesitant to enter the
paid content scene at first, but if Zelina Vega absolutely crushes it, like many believe
she will, then maybe she’s opening the door for a lot of her co wwe superstars to join
her, we’ll have to wait and see how that unfolds

Braun Strowman is just coming off of a huge main event title match on the premiere episode
of Smackdown against Roman reigns
Braun Strowman went trending once again over the weekend, but for the very wrong reasons
and it was mostly in a negative light
Braun Strowman attended “Biketober Fest” at Daytona Beach this past Saturday and he
was uploading pictures and videos of himself at the event
It’s just an event to get together and show off bikes, but in today’s atmosphere, it’s
considered an extremely high risk event to attend, especially for a WWE superstar who
has to be inside the ThunderDome for a match on Raw just 48 hours later
There were thousands of people at the at this festival in such a small space and Braun Strowman
wasn’t wearing any facial coverings or anything like that at all
So fans are a bit worried about the risk this could bring to the WWE locker-room
There’s a questionnaire that WWE superstars have to always fill out before they enter
any tapings and one of those questions is something along the lines of “have you done
anything that might have put yourself at risk?”
So it’ll be interesting to see if Braun Strowman can answer that question with a straight
face and say that no, he hasn’t done anything to put himself at risk at all
It’s great that he enjoyed himself and the fest, but like a lot of WWE fans pointed out,
he has a big match against Keith Lee this week on Raw, and you can see it as putting
Kieth Lee and the entire WWE locker-room at risk
Triple even talked about how they were asking superstars to just be more careful and responsible
in their personal lives especially now
We know that WWE is still in the recovery period of getting through their second outbreak
and obviously they don’t want to deal with a third one
Especially like we heard this past week that a pregnant Becky Lynch was Backstage, you
just never know who you can be putting at risk
So it was a very concerning and a bad look for Strowman no doubt about it, but we can
only hope that nothing comes from it and everyone stays safe inside the ThunderDome

In other wrestling news, it seems like a possible name change could be coming for Dominik Mysterio
We’ve talked a lot of the last few months how “Prince Mysterio” seemed to be the
most likely name change for Dominik
It made sense as well because “Rey” means King, so it makes sense that Dominik would
be prince mysterio, son of the king
But it doesn’t seem like that name change could be happening, but it does look like
a different name change could still be on the way
WWE has just filed for the name of “Dominick”
It’s the same sound and pronunciation of the name, but they did switch up the spelling
for it to end with “n. i. c. k” rather than “n. i. k.”
So that’s a slight change, but it’s still interesting to note
It’s also intriguing to see that the name filed for was just “Dominik”, with the
last name of “mysterio” being no where to be found
Dominik seems very proud of his family and wants to continue their legacy, but it’s
possible that WWE probably wants to slowly break him away from that public image of him
just being “Rey Mysterio’s Son”
We saw them do that for a while with Charlotte Flair. There was a period where she was just
referred to as “Charlotte”, but they eventually gave the “Flair” last name right back
to her
So could that be what they’re aiming here for with Dominik?
I think so because WWE doesn’t seem to enjoy these long names anymore and the name of “Dominik
Mysterio” is a very long name
We’ve seen them shorten so many Superstar names over the last few years alone, so could
they shorten his name to just simply “Dominik”? It seems highly possible
As far as Dominik’s sister Aalyah, Vince McMahon and WWE reportedly love what they
see from the 19 year old
Aalyah has been a reoccurring on screen character over the last few months, but she currently
isn’t signed to any long term agreement with WWE
But that fact right there could change any second now. Reports claim that Vince McMahon
and WWE are ready to sign Aalyah full time because they’re that impressed with her
Aalyah has actually quietly gone missing from WWE television over the last few weeks, but
I think that’s mostly due to the chaos that usually happens with the superstars transitioning
over to different brands
Once the outcomes of the WWE Draft starts settling down, it’s still a possibility
that we can see Aalyah appear again over on Smackdown to either continue this storyline
with Murphy or wrap it up
The way WWE left off things with Aalyah and Murphy seemed to look like there was more
to the story, so maybe that gets picked back up here in the coming weeks
But what are your thoughts on today’s wrestling news?
What are your thoughts on Zelina Vega’s announcement? Do you think it’s a good move?
What are your thoughts on the situation with Bruan Strowman and the mysterio family as
well?
