WWE Star Zelina Vega Comes To Street Fighter 6

Looks like great news for WWE fans. Thea Trinidad, also known as WWE Superstar Zelina Vega, has climbed to the top rope and somersaulted directly into Street Fighter™ 6 as the newest addition to the in-game commentator roster. Thea, a longtime Street Fighter™ fan, brings her strength, style, and electrifying personality to the growing roster.

I’m not big into the commentary feature but I think the option is cool for people who are, but listen, can we all agree this game is shaping up to look like the best Street Fighter of all time?

[Garethvk]

I think it has been a bit under the radar for some. I have heard from people who say they are big fans of the series but this is not getting them hyped. I said wait until convention season and when more news comes out as I am sure they are going to ramp up the promotion.

The group of fighter fans I know are really hyped for it from what they have seen . I don’t think the commentary will matter to them but the more complex set of moves do. That’s the major gripe of SF5 , clunky and simpler move sets .

[CrimsonWing69]

I can get that, I guess. The last Street Fighter I really got into was 4 back on the 360. When 5 released I just heard it was bare bones and passed. This, however, looks absolutely excellent to me! Though, I’m not a hardcore fighter gamer, so I don’t have my finger on the pulse for Street Fighter fans.

Ofcourse some people have some complaints, but overall the community is hyped as can be.

[Garethvk]

I am sure it will do fine as any SF fans who might be on the fence will be right on the hype train and ready to play when it is closer to release.

[Dirty_Lemons]

With respect, nothing surpasses what Street Fighter II Turbo was and still is: unrivaled.

[Garethvk]

Exactly. That is the pinnacle of the franchise for many.

[CrimsonWing69]

Haha, I hear ya. But I haven’t been this excited for Street Fighter in quite some time. It really looks like they’re trying to stuff this to the brim with content.

[Relientk77]

It was cool that Zelina Vega cosplayed as Juri, last night during the Royal Rumble.

[Garethvk]

I like it when they put people who actually have an interest in games doing them versus cramming a name in and pretending they are a gamer and know what it is all about.

Reminds me when Emily Ratajkowski partook in one of the trailers for Call of Duty Advanced Warfare. If you watch the interview you can tell she has never played a CoD game in her life.

COD frequently used celebrities in commercials like Peter Stormayer as the replacement to fill in for people.so they could play.

[babadivad]

Emily is a legit airhead.

[Auron]

Can you turn it off..

[Garethvk]

That is a very good question.

[CrimsonWing69]

Yes.

[Garethvk]

Last time I wanted sound off was High on Life. That gun was so annoying to me.

[mastershredder]

Cross over BS needs to go. WWE has zero to do with SF. Don’t give a f they are a fan of the series. Nice WWE M’lady cha-ching cash-in opportunity there guys. Just as sad as Farcry 6’s Stranger Things steaming pile of marketing.

[Garethvk]

Its all about expanding the market. There are WWE fans who will get the game now just because of her who would otherwise not be your typical buyers for the game.

[gangsta_red]

I definitely have some comments for Zelina Vega

[Asplundh]

Now get Jim Ross to do it.
"Good god almighty it's a Hadouken"

[Garethvk]

Family Guy had a great Street Fighter parody.

[AzubuFrost]

When you KO your opponent:
"WILL SOMEBODY STOP THE DAMN MATCH? ENOUGH'S ENOUGH!"

[Garethvk]

The old mercy rule?

[TheSenorCheese]

*Super Move executed* "They killed him!"

[Petebloodyonion]

Ugh...
That video was actually painful to listen to.
I'm sorry but WWF Smackdown just bring it had better commentary related to the match than this.
Honestly, this feels like a bunch of generic quotes that are spun at random the moment one of the fighters makes an attack, connects a special move, and one for the end.

[Kosic]

Just adding the voice overs randomly made this partly cringeful.

[TheSenorCheese]

Honestly, Thea (Zelina) is a great talent. She's fun in the ring and also goes to gaming events in full on cosplay. She even has a "bling" controller that Kustom Kontrollerz put together for her, and had one made for Malakai Black (her BF) as well. I mean, if that doesn't say she's a gamer, I'm not sure what does. I wish her well in this role. :D
