WWE Superstar Zelina Vega Offers to Train Valkyrae for Wrestling
Rachell “Valkyrae” Hofstetter has expressed her interest in boxing, and now Zelina Vega, a WWE superstar, has offered to train her for wrestling instead. Creator Clash founder Ian “iDubbbz” Washburn confirmed Valkyrae’s interest in boxing.
Vega, who is also a streamer, extended an invitation to Valkyrae in May to step into the ring with her. Although Valkyrae was initially hesitant, calling herself “kind of scared,” the possibility is still open.
On July 20, Vega made another attempt to entice Valkyrae by suggesting they team up for a tag match. She tweeted, “Valkyrae needs to quit playing! She can be my tag partner that doesn’t abandon me at WrestleMania!”
Vega was referring to her former tag-team partner, Carmella, with whom she held the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship until they betrayed each other and lost at WrestleMania 38 in April.
Vega believes Valkyrae would be an ideal replacement and has offered to train her. She said, “Boxing is dope, and I’m sure you’d excel at that too, but if you ever want to [wrestle], we’ll teach you all you need to know!”

Will Valkyrae and Vega Team Up?
The possibility of Valkyrae and Vega teaming up is not out of the question, especially considering that YouTube star Logan Paul made his professional wrestling debut for the WWE at WrestleMania 38.
Professional wrestling is a form of sports entertainment, similar to other types of content creation. While it requires professional training to master the athletic aspect, it is a skill that can be taught.
The content creators who participated in Creator Clash demonstrated that they were capable of delivering excellent performances. Although professional wrestling at the highest level is more challenging, it is not impossible.
However, Valkyrae is currently focused on Creator Clash 2, scheduled for 2023. Nevertheless, a future in WWE may still be in store for her.
