WWE NXT Women’s Champion Roxanne Perez made her RAW debut on Monday night, defeating Indi Hartwell in singles action.
Perez also had a confrontation with Natalya, and the NXT Women’s Champion spoke about the moment in a backstage “Digital Exclusive.”
You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On the debut: “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.”
On her confrontation with Natalya: “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 own 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.”
