The WWE star may have been destined to cosplay as Loba. Not only does Vega look like the Season 5 legend, but her in-ring persona matches that of Loba’s. When Loba is fighting in the Apex tournament, she is intense, fierce, and never holds back. Since her professional wrestling debut in 2010, Zelina Vega has made her name by smashing through the women’s division, never mincing words, and being described as a “ruthless” wrestler.
While Loba is motivated by revenge, Vega has been motivated by winning the Women’s title. She cements the perfect cosplay by captioning her Instagram post, “Gold goes so well with a diamond like me.” The caption is one of Loba’s lines in theApex Legendscharacter selection, which is what Vega is mimicking in the video. Her cosplay was so impressive that it even got a nod fromApex Legendsdevelopers, commenting on her post, “Okay Loba, we see you!”
