The NXT Women’s North American Champion, Zaria feels that she is ready for a main roster call up.
Talking to Busted Open After Dark, the current champ discusses if she feels ready for a main roster call up. She has now nearly six years of experience in the business as she went by the name DELTA prior in the Australian indie scene.
“Yes, absolutely I am. I mean, you know, I gotta do something about this (NXT Women’s North American Title). But I’m absolutely ready. More than ready.” (Fightful/Transcript)
She also speaks on the difference between the women’s and men’s rosters.
“I think what we really do well is we do put in the work. I think others could maybe work a little bit harder, and not be given all these opportunities but, we do put in the work. If you step into the Performance Center, and you saw all the women training every single day, and then you looked at the men training every single day, I’m guaranteeing you right now, we’re sweating bullets more than those boys ever could. We get pushed as far as we can to our limits. But also, I think we’re not afraid to tap into our emotions so when it comes to feeling all of those emotions in a match, we allow the people to connect to us a little bit more than the guys because I understand, being a guy, you kind of always tap into every single emotion that you can but for us women, we’ll tap into that instantly and I think that’s the thing people gravitate towards…” (Fightful/Transcript)

Currently it is a unification match with the WWE Women’s Speed Title against that champion, Wren Sinclair.
