Zelina Vega isn’t just a WWE Smackdown Superstar, she’s also well-known by many fans of various video games by being a skilled cosplayer. The wrestler enjoys portraying detailed takes on well-known characters from games that a lot of people know and love, and her cosplay photoshoots often draw a lot of praise when she posts them on her social media.
Vega has dabbled in dressing up as a lot of different characters, with a recent Nurse Joy cosplay from Pokemon wowing fans of the franchise and of Vega herself. She used to spend a lot of time on her Twitch channel interacting with her fan base and streaming video games, but that’s largely stopped due to the WWE restrictions on its talents’ third-party partnerships. That hasn’t stopped her from posting her cosplay pictures to other websites such as Instagram. Here are some of her most intricate and skilled cosplays.
Vega’s Mortal Kombat cosplay was posted to her Instagram and Twitter just a day before Halloween this year, and it makes use of not just costuming but accessories. The dual dark blue fans are a huge part of the cosplay, and Vega’s stylish pose makes the fans a huge part of the photo composition. This isn’t Vega’s first foray into portraying Mortal Kombat characters, as some fans will remember earlier this year when she appeared in the Royal Rumble pay-per-view event wearing an ensemble clearly inspired by Sindel. Vega also posted a spooky Mileena-inspired look to her Instagram recently.
D.Va appears to be a favorite character of Vega’s, as the wrestler has cosplayed this hero twice in the last few months. The first take was a more classic homage to the mech pilot, as she’s armed with a gun and wearing a uniform that looks a lot like D.Va’s usual gear. She uploaded the “transformation” into the Overwatch hero to her Instagram reels. Vega is known as a big Overwatch fan, and she’s also cosplayed Sombra to one of the WWE’s biggest annual PPV events: the SummerSlam.
Fans didn’t have to wait for long to see Vega’s take-two on D.Va, and this one was more of a spin on the character than an exact replica. Last month, the wrestler posted a poolside picture of her in a D.Va-inspired swimsuit, pointing a fake gun at the viewer. Her makeup and headset help unify the look, and although this isn’t a look that D.Va ever dons in-game, most Overwatch fans will easily be able to who inspired this outfit.
Vega’s take on the Loose Cannon was a dream come true for many of her fans, who loved seeing the detail on her pink cannon accessory, as well as the other parts of her outfit. Her blue wig and playful pose really make the whole ensemble come together, and they certainly impressed her Instagram followers.
When these pictures got posted, some people commented that Vega’s Loba cosplay seems perfectly suited for the wrestler, given her similar looks to the High Society Thief. Her hair, makeup, and costume are great replicas of Loba, enough so that even the Apex Legends developers made a public nod to Vega’s skill by commenting on her Instagram post. Some fans noted that Loba and Vega have similar personalities, as Loba is a thief who wants revenge, and Vega’s wrestling persona is devoted to winning the Women’s Championship.
It’s clear that cosplaying video game characters is of Zelina Vega’s passions beside wrestling, and it’s something that she excels at. It doesn’t look like something she’ll stop soon, given how well populated her social media pages are with stunning pictures. Fans who want to learn more about the photographers and designers who helped her create these works of art can view the photos themselves to find the team’s handles in many of the descriptions.
