As a child, Finn Bálor's wife, Vero Rodríguez, developed a passion for various sports, from soccer to F1 and motorsports to basketball. Her multi-faceted love for the industry transmuted into sportscasting in a minor twist of fate.

Irish professional wrestler Finn Bálor has built a remarkable career and garnered a massive following in the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE); however, he's not the only star taking the spotlight. The athlete sometimes shares it with his wife, sports journalist Vero Rodríguez.

The couple kept their relationship under wraps and only went Instagram official months before tying the knot. However, they'd previously had public interactions in professional settings and on social media.

A Glimpse into Vero Rodríguez's Rise to Sportscasting

Rodríguez grew up in Mexico, where her father often took her to watch Pumas games. She developed a love for soccer, which branched out to other sports as she grew older. When she was studying at University, she had a classmate who produced a show called "Pumas TV."

He invited her to do the interviews in exchange for tickets, and that's how her career in sports TV began. Rodríguez still does interviews, but another part of her work she enjoys is the thrill of her onscreen debates with her colleagues at Fox Sports.

Fans will recognize her from the network's "WWE Saturday Night" show. She has also hosted Telemundo's "IndyCar," recently on location in Monterey Bay, California. Additionally, she has covered "Zona Mixta" on NBC and NBA Mexico's "Trivia NBA."

Vero Rodríguez Has Mixed Feelings about Being in The Limelight

Regarding being well-known in the industry, Rodríguez confessed she felt excitement and anxiety. Like many celebrities, she encounters numerous stories about herself online.

"I have a lot of anxiety, so I always wish they had written something good about me [...]. Every time I see that they have published something about me, I have a few five seconds of anxiety," she shared as translated.

Vero Rodríguez's Romance and Marriage with Finn Bálor

It's unclear when Rodríguez and Bálor began dating, but the couple's earliest known interactions date back to 2017, when Rodríguez interviewed the WWE star upon his return to the ring and again when she did the #FinnFreeze with him that year.

Bálor and Rodríguez also interacted frequently on X (formerly Twitter). In May 2019, Bálor posted a single crying emoji, and Rodríguez responded, "90 minutes left," with the fingers crossed and the fire extinguisher emojis.

The following day, Rodríguez updated her followers, writing (per Google translate), "We are back in @AgendaFOXSports, and it has me in extreme happiness." Bálor replied with a donut emoji, to which Rodríguez responded with a steaming bowl of soup.

A few days later, Rodríguez shared a mirror selfie, to which Bálor replied, "Estas en uno ('you are in one,' per Google translate)." Two months after these random posts — the context of which is a bit of a mystery — in June 2019, they went Instagram official.

Bálor shared a picture that showed him excitedly giving Rodríguez a piggyback ride. "Champions League and pancakes with @verolaguera [...] #forevergang," he captioned. The lovebirds tied the knot in August 2019 in a small, intimate ceremony at Cenote dos Palmas.

They each shared a few photos from their special day on socials. They have bonded over their shared love for WWE, but when asked about her favorite wrestlers, Rodríguez only listed Roman Reigns and AJ Styles, among others. However, this was before she and Bálor went public.
