Roxanne Perez Asserts Dominance as NXT Women’s Champion

On the WWE NXT program airing on April 9, Perez successfully defended her championship against Natalya despite interference by Lola Vice. This continued the momentum. Perez discussed her recent triumph and affirmed her independence from her heroes in an NXT Digital Exclusive.

Thinking back on her experience, Perez remembered asking Natalya for advice during an episode of “Total Divas” nine years prior. Natalya’s remark disappointed Perez, who came to the realization that she was no longer in need of her heroes.

She asserted her independence by saying that her title and herself were all she needed. Reinterpreting her win over Natalya as a metaphorical victory.

“I begged Natalya to offer me advice after seeing a young, naive Roxanne Perez on “Total Divas” nine years ago. What did Natalya do for me when I requested her to show me the steps to become a WWE Superstar? Nothing. Nothing.

What, then did I do? I’ve come to the conclusion that I no longer require any of my idols nine years later. I must have Natalya. Everything I need is me, myself, and my title. Tonight, ‘The Boat’ hit ‘The Prodigy,’ and it sank.”

As fans eagerly anticipate Perez’s future as NXT Women’s Champion, her evolving heel character adds intrigue to her reign, leaving audiences invested in her journey to the top.
