She Connects With Her Family

Vega shared her pre-match ritual with HOLA! USA. "I actually have a ritual right before I go out. I have a moment where I talk to my dad. I call my guardian angels. I go through my list: my dad, my uncle, my grandfather. I mean, even my little puppy that I lost. So I get to talk to them and tell them to be there with me because, without them, I wouldn't be where I am. And even though they're gone, I feel them making sure that I'm safe in the ring. I always say, 'Make sure I'm safe, make sure I remember everything, make sure that the fans love it.'"

She Embraces Things

When it comes to her career, Vega tells Busted Open Radio that she is embracing everything that happens to her. "I wanted to take in every single moment. And even in the times when you're supposed to be the character and be in it and perform. I really try to take myself out of it for a second and just look around and say, wow. Even when me and Rey were coming out together. Mind you, Rey Mysterio, my hero is what I've looked up to since I was eight years old. To stand next to him, and we made our entrance, and we didn't do what we normally did. We walked out, and we both kind of just looked around, and he said to me, 'How cool is this?'"

Vega opened up about how hard she worked to HOLA! USA. "I feel like my whole life has been a struggle from just everything that I started, whether it's in WWE or, I mean, my gosh, I used to go from Connecticut into New York to take a train into the city to hop on a nine-hour bus ride to get all the way to North Carolina just to train for a weekend. So it's things like that when you finally get to have a moment where you're having a championship match or you're getting to be in front of thousands of people, especially your people in Puerto Rico. That was a dream come true."
