Double Shot: SmackDown Star Reportedly Works Two Matches Despite Illness

That’s tough. There are all kinds of problems that a wrestler might have to deal with and some of them are a lot more common than others. In addition to problems that are rather unique to wrestling, there is always the chance that something could slow them down in the ring. Wrestlers occasionally have to work through a problem and that was the case again this week in an impressive display.

This week, WWE taped two episodes of SmackDown, with the December 15 episode airing live and the December 22 episode being taped in advance. According to PWInsider.com, Zelina Vega wrestled on both shows despite being ill. Vega lost in a tag team match on the December 15 edition and is expected to wrestle on the December 22 edition as well. Vega has received praise for working through the illness.

Vega is someone who could be a breakout star. Check out her time in the ring:

Opinion: This is a rather impressive ordeal as you probably did not guess that Vega was in bad shape this week. Ti’s all the more impressive that she wrestled twice, which is more than a lot of people would be able to do. Vega has long since felt like she could be a bigger deal if given the chance but at the moment, she is still waiting to get that shot. For now though, well done indeed.

What do you think of Vega? How far will she go in WWE? Let us know in the comments below.
