10 Storyline Moments WWE Can’t Afford To Book

Heads were scratched when WWE began splitting silver-tongued manager Zelina Vega from longtime client Andrade and newcomer Angel Garza before the 2020 Draft. Then, those heads exploded when Vega was bumped over to SmackDown and both ex-associates remained on Raw.

Oh well, at least she'd be a star on Fridays... right? Right?!

Unfortunately, Zelina's short-term plans appear to be playing SmackDown's resident female job machine. The nightmare outcome here is that WWE tire of exploiting her inexperience (instead of masking it and, y'know, making her look like the star she is) and think that a hasty reunion is needed over on Monday nights.

It'd be an outright tragedy for Vega if she was written to come crawling back to Andrade with the begging bowl out. She has the potential to be a top name on SmackDown if WWE allow it. She's not gonna' get there without some help though.
