Zelina Vega: I Am The Future United States Champion

Zelina Vega is on fire and she's willing to walk through it if it means winning the Women's United States Championship.

After defeating current Women's US Champion Chelsea Green not once, but twice, Vega has staked her claim and called her shot: she's coming for the championship.

That's what Vega said during an interview with Byron Saxton after Friday Night SmackDown.

"I am the future United States champion," Vega said. "That is the message that I'm sending. I didn't need any help. I know that she does. She needs her little suicide squad to help her win matches. That's fine. But I don't. I don't need anyone. And if tonight proved anything, it's that I can do this."
