CM Punk, since his return to WWE, has been actively involved with the “WWE NXT” roster, particularly focusing on talents in the women’s division, such as Roxanne Perez and Cora Jade. During his appearance at “Fanatics Fest NYC” alongside the hosts of “UpUpDownDown,” Punk expressed his admiration for Perez’s current progress and his hopes for her on the main roster.
Punk commended Perez, describing her as the present talent, while also highlighting her potential for the future. Drawing a comparison to Bron Breakker, who has made a significant impact on the main roster after transitioning from “NXT,” Punk sees Perez following a similar path due to her exceptional skills and determination. The influx of new talents in the “NXT” women’s division, like Stephanie Vaquer and Giulia, further excites Punk, who envisions potential matchups between them and Perez on the main roster.
Having a close relationship with both CM Punk and his wife, AJ Lee, Perez has acknowledged the influence of the veteran wrestler on her career. With the guidance and support of Punk and Lee, Perez aims to establish a lasting legacy on the main roster, competing against top talents and leaving her mark in the WWE universe.
Ultimately, Punk looks forward to seeing Perez’s progression and potential clashes with other established stars on the main roster, anticipating thrilling and explosive matchups that will showcase the true talent and dedication of these performers.
