WWE NXT’s Level Up gets one of its biggest starts yet on Friday, as former ROH Women’s World Champion Rok-C makes her WWE debut. Pictures from the recording of the show appeared yesterday, but now WWE Officially promoting her debut and her new name, the former Rok-C will now go by Roxanne Perez. She will face Sloane Jacobs in her first NXT match, and the episode will also feature Damon Kemp, Troy Donovan, and a main event featuring Kiana James and Tatum Paxley. Here are the official details from WWE.
In an exciting edition of NXT Level Up, Kiana James and Tatum Paxley are set to take part in an exciting main event, where Roxanne Perez will face Sloane Jacobs, and Damon Kemp seeks another big win when he faces Troy Donovan. Paxley, who briefly teamed up with Ivy Nile, seems interested in joining Diamond Mine, although it is unclear if the feeling is mutual from Nile, Malcolm Bivens and the rest of the leading group.
Although if Paxley can defeat Kiana James, who is seeking one of the biggest wins of her career, it could go a long way toward getting Diamond Mine to consider letting the Superstar join their ranks.
Jacobs and Perez both appear on the NXT Level Up for the first time, the latter of which will make their WWE debut. Both stars are looking for a clear victory in the numbers which will be an even match.
While it took Kemp some time to find a foothold, he netted an impressive win when he beat former NXT UK Tag Team Champion James Drake two weeks ago at the NXT Level Up. The amateur star will be targeting his second straight win when he faces Troy Donovan, an arrogant newcomer who made his WWE debut alongside Channing Lauren in a losing bid against Andre Chase and Buddy Hayward one week ago.
Don’t miss an exciting episode of NXT Level Up, airing Friday 10/9C on Peacock in the US and on WWE Network elsewhere! “
Nicknamed The Prodigy, Perez began training under Booker T and The Reality of Wrestling at the age of 16, and worked there for three years. In 2021, she will join the Ring of Honor and later defeat Miranda Alize to become the ROH Women’s World Champion. In fact, she defeated Kincaid in the tournament to win that title, which was going to Quinn McKay at the time.
After a series of title defenses, she will lose the title to Deonna Purrazo in January of this year after Ring of Honor released all of her talent from her contracts in late 2021. It was then rumored that she auditioned and was offered a deal with WWE, which will eventually be confirmed by the before WWE. She is now officially in NXT and we hope to be one of WWE’s biggest and brightest stars for years to come.
