The newly crowned and now two-time NXT Women’s Champion Roxanne Perez made a surprise debut on Raw.
Perez faced a former adversary, Indi Hartwell, and was able to pull out the win. Later in backstage, Perez ran into Natalya. Natalya told her that she would see her tomorrow at NXT and Perez responded by calling NXT her show.
In a WWE Exclusive, Perez spoke about both her first match ever on Raw and her run in with Natalya.
“I feel amazing. Honestly, I don’t really need your congratulations. We all knew that I was going to become two-time NXT Women’s Champion. We all knew that I was going to defeat Indi Hartwell, and if everybody else didn’t know, I knew, and that’s all that mattered.”
“Natalya used to be one of my heroes. I met her when I was 13 years old, and I went up to her and asked her for advice, and she was nice enough to give me some. But now I realize I don’t need Natalya. I don’t need any of my heroes, I am my own hero. If Natalya has a problem with that, she can come to my show and say it to my face.”
