Lola Vice is a rising star in WWE NXT who has captivated fans and viewers alike with her unwavering attitude and career ambitions. In an exclusive interview with Under The Ring, Vice talks about his dreams, motivations, and the long-term impact he wants to make in the world of wrestling.
Short-term goal: Make history
Vice’s immediate goal is clear: to write her name in WWE history by winning the NXT Women’s Championship. Her goal is to become the first Cuban-American woman to accomplish this feat, a goal fueled by her love of wrestling and heritage.
“Short-term is becoming the NXT Women’s Champion and the first Cuban American woman to do so,” Vice declared with conviction. “Also knocking out Shayna Baszler, the only woman to ever tap out Ronda Rousey.”
Her strong pursuit paid off at the 2024 “WWE NXT” Battlegrounds event, where Vice defeated Shayna Baszler in an “NXT” Underground match. This victory not only proved his prowess in the ring but also confirmed his status as a rising star.
Long-Term Vision: A Legacy Like Natalya
Looking beyond immediate triumphs, Vice envisions a lasting career within WWE akin to the revered legacy of Natalya. Her ambitions extend beyond in-ring achievements, encompassing a desire to maintain a successful career while nurturing a fulfilling personal life, much like WWE icon Trish Stratus.
“Long-term, I want to be a player like Natalya. I want to be in this company for many years. I want to eventually, one day, be on the main roster and have my kids and come back and be like Trish Stratus,” Vice shared, underscoring her aspirations for enduring impact both professionally and personally.
Inspiration and Representation: Motivating the Next Generation
As the first Cuban-American signing in WWE history, Vice embraces the responsibility of representing her culture and inspiring young Hispanic individuals worldwide. She aims to serve as a beacon of hope, demonstrating that achieving success in WWE is within reach without compromising one’s identity.
“I want to inspire a young Latin woman like me who never really had opportunities and show them that you could do this,” Vice passionately expressed. “You could look different. You could have a natural body. You could speak Spanish. You could be bilingual. You could dance, and also be a badass.”
His powerful message resonated strongly, especially in an industry that values diversity and recognition. Vice’s journey and achievements are a testament to the perseverance, tenacity, and limitlessness of those who dare to dream.
A Rising Star with a Clear Path
Despite being at the outset of her WWE journey, Vice has already carved out a remarkable trajectory marked by notable accomplishments and unwavering determination. Her ability to articulate her ambitions and demonstrate tangible progress underscores a maturity and resolve that foreshadow a promising future within WWE.
Vice’s stories are about resilience, fantasy, and inspiration. As he continues to rise through the ranks of WWE NXT, fans, and wrestlers alike look to him as a symbol of what can be achieved with hard work and dedication.
