Competing in front of her family and in Puerto Rico for the first time, Zelina Vega teamed with fellow LWO member Rey Mysterio to take on The Judgment Day’s Dominik Mysterio and SmackDown Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley. With just one night to go before Vega’s clash with Ripley for the SmackDown Women’s Title at WWE Backlash, there was a lot on the line in this Mixed Tag Team Match.

Vega took it to Ripley before “Mami” tagged in Dominik, erupting the WWE Universe into a chorus of boos. As Vega was about to tag in The Master of the 619, Dominik appeared to stop Rey from receiving the tag. Vega was eventually able to tag in Rey who hit a huge cross body on Dominik, with the roar of the crowd buoying Rey's every move.

Rey managed to hit the 619 on his son but couldn’t secure the victory as Dominik managed to evade the finishing blow. Domink attempted the Three Amigos but it backfired, leading to Rey Mysterio utilizing a small package to gain the victory.
