WWE surprisingly brought Zelina Vega back and she was featured on this week’s episode of SmackDown.
Back in 2020, Vega was released by the company due to a breach of contract. This came after her activity on OnlyFans, and it was considered the breach of contract as WWE had brought a new rule that didn’t allow its superstars to have handles on third-party platforms.

Vince McMahon was reportedly unhappy with Vega opening an OnlyFans account at the time and thereby she was let go.
WWE had apologized to Zelina Vega
PWInsider’s Mike Johnson revealed a few backstage details leading up to her recent return. He mentioned that the “segments of the company” felt that Vega should not have been released last year.
They had pushed for conversations between the two sides to continue, and the WWE officials even apologized to the superstar before making her an offer to return.
“We are told that even after Vega was released, there were segments of the company who felt she should have been retained and not released.We are told those segments of the company pushed for conversations between the two sides to continue. They eventually did and we are told that after a long period of back and forth conversations, WWE execs apologized to Vega and made her an offer to return. Eventually, she decided to go through that open door and signed back with the company.”
Upon her return, Zelina Vega was announced to be the latest participant in the 2021 Women’s Money in the Bank ladder contest. She also faced Liv Morgan in a singles match and shockingly enough she suffered a defeat upon her return.
