WWE superstar Zelina Vega is branching out beyond wrestling after signing with the Prototype talent agency, a move first reported by Deadline. She joins other WWE talents on the Prototype roster, including Cody Rhodes, Bubba Ray Dudley, and Billy Gunn.
Vega has already showcased her acting abilities, having played AJ Lee in a Saraya biopic and served as a guest commentator for the video game Street Fighter 6. Additionally, she has appeared in multiple WWE video games.
This new development with Prototype highlights WWE’s evolving approach to its talent working outside the promotion. Rather than restricting them to WWE appearances only, wrestlers now have more freedom to explore opportunities beyond the ring. Many current WWE superstars are now represented by talent agencies, including some from the Paradigm group.
Meanwhile, Vega is still pursuing success inside the ring, set to challenge the Women’s American Champion Julia on August 1st. However, the balance between her in-ring career and new ventures remains uncertain.
Fan Take: This news is exciting for WWE fans as it signals a shift towards more diverse opportunities for wrestlers, potentially increasing their visibility and influence outside WWE. It also hints at a broader future for the sport where athletes can build versatile careers that go beyond wrestling alone.
