It’s been more than a year since WWE called up Roxanne Perez from the NXT brand, and the 24-year-old has since settled into her role as a member of The Judgment Day. Speaking to Complex, Perez was asked to identify the moment when she felt she was truly ready to perform regularly on the main roster.
“Honestly, I think that moment for me was the Royal Rumble in 2025, where I outlasted every other woman in the Royal Rumble and I was [one of] the last two standing with ‘The Queen’ herself, Charlotte Flair,” Perez said. “Unfortunately, I was eliminated, but as I sat there and watched her celebrate, I just realized – I’m 23 years old at the time, I’m standing in the ring with Charlotte Flair. … This is exactly where I belong.”
Perez joined The Judgment Day just several months after her full-time call-up. At the time, Liv Morgan was injured, and there was some tension between the two upon Morgan’s return which has since been resolved. Nearly a year after joining the group, Perez feels fully integrated.
“I’m here for The Judgment Day, no matter what it takes,” she said. “If they need chicken tendies, I got them with the chicken tendies. If they need a tag partner, I got them with a tag partner. If they need help with absolutely anything, … I will do whatever it takes, and I feel like I’ve proven that time and time and time again.”
As the youngest member of the group, Perez views her age as a strength and not a weakness, and she believes her allies are well aware of all that she brings to the table.
