Gail Kim briefly worked with Roxanne Perez before the latter joined WWE.
During a recent appearance on the “Gabby AF” podcast, Kim commented on getting to produce Perez’s one TNA match with Deonna Purrazzo. She said,
“I got to produce her one match when she was in TNA, she did the ROH women’s title against Deonna. That match in itself, I got goosebumps just thinking about it. I saw her when I went to NXT because we have talent there and I have to drive up every week as a TNA representative. I saw her and I never really got to talk to her since I saw her match at Great American Bash. They were the main event and they killed it. I love women’s wrestling and those two [Roxanne and Thea Hail], they had match of the night to me, 100%. She is a natural. She’s the prodigy. She lives up to the name, she really does. I can’t wait to see what she does on the main roster. I think it’s about that time soon.”
CM Punk has nothing but high praise for current WWE NXT Women’s Champion Roxanne Perez.
While speaking at the Fanatics Fest NYC event, Punk commented on the talent that Perez possesses. He said,
“Roxanne Perez is the present. As far as the future, the future looks good for her, too. Uber talent, head on her shoulders. The sky is the limit. I want to see what she can do on the main roster. I know there are some heavy hitters coming in NXT. Stephanie Vaquer, Giulia is coming. If they’re going to NXT, I want to see them mix it up with Roxanne Perez. That’s going to be some dynamite stuff.”
