During a recent edition of the “Busted Open Radio” podcast, WWE Hall of Famer and NXT Head Shawn Michaels commented on a potential main roster call-up for reigning WWE NXT Women’s Champion Roxanne Perez.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On Roxanne Perez getting called up: “I think that’s a tough call. I think she can. I will say this, I agree with you guys, it was probably two or three months ago, at a point in your career, one of those times, you have a match, and sort of that lightbulb goes on, and everything begins to make a little bit more sense. That enables you to then begin to carry yourself with a confidence and a comfortability that she didn’t have before.”
On Perez’s match with Thea Hail at Great American Bash: “Roxanne had that match, I think for me, that turning point was with Chase U, and I think she had that opportunity out there, and she stepped into her own as the champion. Now look, I think any time you go to the main roster, much like you’re talking about Giulia, it’s an entirely different world, it’s a big move.”
On moving up to the main roster: “Now how you deal with that move I think determines how well you do. Whether she steps into that with the confidence and the aggression and the comfortability that she has right now, and she does that on the main roster, you bet I think she can be successful. A lot of it is how you yourself carry yourself when you’re in those environments.”
