Roxanne Perez hit the ground running from the moment she stepped in in WWE NXT, and has so far claimed the gold medal in the tournament when she became half of the NXT Women’s Tag Team Championship alongside Cora Jade. Since then, Jade has turned into her former best friend and became her main rival, although Perez still has her eye on the main prize, the NXT Women’s Championship. Perez recently spoke to Denis Salcedo It’s all about her time in NXT so far and how it’s been like being part of the WWE, and in some ways, it’s still all quite surreal.
“I feel like it’s so surreal, honestly. I still have moments almost every day, I love driving to PC and saying, ‘Wait, I’m a WWE superstar.'” This is madness. But yeah, I still feel like a little kid every single day I go to work. I feel like it’s all happening so fast, but I feel like it’s all happening the way it’s supposed to. It’s great working with Shawn Michaels: the time The first I literally met him, I was like a little kid, I was like, “Oh my God, don’t cry, don’t cry.” But yeah, he’s cool. He’s awesome, he’s helped me so much, Matt Bloom, he’s like our head coach there, and he’s been so amazing ‘ Perez said.
Perez also enjoyed working with friends she previously worked with on the independent scene. “Just like the environment there and all the girls I work with. I work on some girls I know from the Indies like Andy Hartwell, Cora is good, so yeah, it’s really cool,” Perez said.
“It’s crazy, it’s surreal because I’m only 20, so I’ve done a lot in my wrestling career, but it’s very surreal to me because I would never have thought, when I was younger, I always knew I was fine, I would be a star in WWE. There was no if, and I didn’t even think about it. I was like I’m not doing it, but I’m going to. But I never thought I’d do it. The NXT Women’s Tag Team Champion is in four months,” Perez said.
“Honestly, I don’t know, I feel like I love WWE and this business, it makes my little 10-year-old so happy and proud because I never would have thought that all of this would be happening so fast, but I’m grateful,” Perez said.
Perez will next face Jade at the NXT Heatwave, which takes place next Tuesday, August 16.
