Roxanne Perez Reflects on Her Rise to Stardom in WWE
Roxanne Perez, the reigning NXT Women’s Champion, recently shared the pivotal moment she realized WWE was ready to push her to stardom. At just 22 years old, Perez has rapidly evolved into one of the most promising young talents in professional wrestling.
Over her two-year journey with WWE, Perez has achieved remarkable growth and success. In a recent appearance on ‘The Masked Man Show,’ she recounted the moment that made her feel like a true WWE star.
Perez recalled that her first reign as the NXT Women’s Champion marked the turning point in her career. “It all began when they gave me the NXT Women’s Championship for the first time,” she revealed. “That moment was a culmination of everything I had worked for, and it made me realize that WWE saw something special in me.”
Training with Legends and Earning Respect
Perez’s journey to the top wasn’t just about winning titles; it was also about the incredible mentorship she received along the way. She trained under WWE Hall of Famer Booker T, whose guidance was instrumental in shaping her career. After defeating Mandy Rose, Perez held the NXT Women’s Championship for over 100 days, solidifying her status as a top-tier talent.
For Perez, becoming a WWE superstar was always the ultimate goal. She expressed deep gratitude to WWE, particularly to NXT’s creative head, Shawn Michaels, for believing in her. “Every step I’ve taken has been with the goal of making it in WWE,” Perez said. “It’s an amazing feeling to have the trust and support of Shawn Michaels and the entire WWE team.”
In addition to her championship reigns, Perez has also competed in two Royal Rumble matches, a significant achievement in her WWE journey.
As she continues her second reign as NXT Women’s Champion, which she reclaimed from Lyra Valkyria at Stand & Deliver earlier this year, Perez’s dedication to her craft remains unwavering. Her journey, which began with wrestling lessons at the age of 13, has been marked by relentless hard work and a clear focus on success.
Roxanne Perez’s story is a testament to the power of determination and the belief that dreams can become reality with the right mindset and support. As she continues to make waves in WWE, there’s no doubt that Perez’s star will only continue to rise.
