Before she signed with WWE, Lola Vice, real name Valerie Loureda, fought in Bellator MMA.
Speaking with Jim Varsallone of the Miami Herald, Vice was asked whether she would be interested in fighting in the UFC following the WWE-UFC merger with TKO. She said,
“I have mixed thoughts about that because right now, I’m very committed to being the best wrestler or superstar in the history of WWE. I’m a big believer that you have to stick to one path and commit to that, and you can’t really do two, three, four, and then just be okay in all of them. If I’m gonna do something, I’m gonna be the best at it. Maybe that’s in my cards in a while, if Hunter wants me to do it. Whoever my boss is, I will do what they want, and of course, I’ll be open to it. I love fighting. But right now, I’m completely dedicated to the WWE, and that’s my only goal.”
