Let’s discuss WWE and the often overlooked topic of contract expirations and renewals. Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp recently confirmed that WWE NXT star Lola Vice has re-signed with the company after Pwinsider Elite initially reported her contract was set to expire this summer. While the details of the new deal’s duration remain unclear, her previous contract lasted for three years.
Who is Lola Vice? For casual viewers of NXT, WWE’s developmental brand, Lola Vice may be a new name to explore. A former MMA fighter, she joined WWE in 2022 after competing with Bellator MMA. In 2023 and early 2024, she worked alongside former WWE star Electra Lopez. Recently, Vice participated in a 20-woman battle royale at WWE Evolution. One of her notable achievements includes winning the 2023 NXT Women’s Breakout Tournament by defeating Kerani Jordan in the finals, earning her a championship match of choice. Although she was unable to overcome then-champion Laila Valkyria in that match—which also featured Roxanne Perez, now on the main roster—Vice’s career is regaining momentum.
Lola Vice has also made a mark internationally with Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide. At 27, she has been involved with the company since WWE’s acquisition of Lucha Libre AAA. Her debut came at the AAA X WWE Worlds Collide event, where she and Stephanie Vaquer defeated AAA stars Chik Tormenta and Dalys. In July, she teamed up with Santino Marella in a losing effort against La Heedra and Iguana. Later that month, Vice and Natalia secured a victory against Chik Tormenta, Dalys, Fabby Apache, and Lady Shani. Vice is set to compete at AAA’s major annual event, Triplemania XXXIII, on August 16th at Arena CDMX in Mexico City, facing off alongside Iguana and Niño Hamburgue against Finn Balor, JD McDonna, and Raquel Rodriguez from Judgement Day. This event will be available for live streaming on WWE’s official YouTube channel in both English and Spanish, giving WWE fans a chance to see Vice showcase her growing talents on a global stage.
Fan Take: This contract renewal signals WWE’s continued faith in Lola Vice’s potential, highlighting the company’s investment in rising stars. For WWE fans, it means more exciting developments in NXT and intriguing cross-promotional matches with Lucha Libre AAA, enriching the wrestling scene worldwide.
