Vega was in an interview with Megan Morant during SmackDown LowDown this Friday night. She was suddenly interrupted by the team of Chelsea Green and Sonya Deville. The two stars ridiculed Zelina for her size and even questioned her credibility for a title shot against SmackDown Women's Champion Rhea Ripley.
During the back-and-forth, Zelina clapped back, saying Deville and Green did not have what it takes to win the Women's Tag Team championships. She called them "Karen number one" & "Karen number two" and challenged the former authority figure to a match next week on SmackDown.
Sonya Deville accepted the challenge, making the match all but official for next week's show.
"We could go back-and-forth all day, but if you really wanna do something about it, me and you next week. What do you say?" [From 4:25 - 4:31]
