A real-life couple who worked with WWE until this year will team up for a match at an independent promotion.
They are none other than former WWE superstars Zelina Vega and Aleister Black. In a tweet from House of Glory Wrestling on X, the promotion announced that Vega and Black (now going by the names Xelina and Tommy End) will team up to battle Lio Rush and Shotzi in a mixed tag team match.

It will take place at HOG’s event in New York on October 9. Xelina also reposted the tweet with a message saying,
It’s timeeeee ?.
Zelina Vega and Aleister Black were paired together on SmackDown after Black returned to WWE last year. However, in a surprise turn of events, the real-life married couple were released by the company in May 2026.
After their 90-day non-compete clauses ended, they began appearing in independent promotions. Moreover, Black recently won the PROGRESS World Championship, while Vega has set her sights on the HOG Women’s title after attacking Shotzi at their show last month.
With Vega and Black set to team up for the first time after their WWE release, it will be interesting to see their chemistry in the ring.
