Roxanne Perez, the current NXT Women’s Champion, is gearing up to defend her title against Jaida Parker at the upcoming No Mercy PLE event. Perez, in a recent interview with “TV Insider,” expressed her confidence in retaining her championship once again. Here’s why Perez believes she will come out on top:
Perez, a self-proclaimed 22-year-old veteran, acknowledged Parker’s talent and growth in WWE NXT, despite only being in the promotion for about a year. Perez emphasized that while she is excited to face Parker, she firmly believes that it is not yet Parker’s time to become champion. Perez recognizes Parker’s confidence, aura, and potential to be a future champion but asserts that she will prevail in their upcoming match.
Since reclaiming the NXT Women’s Championship in April at Stand & Deliver, Perez has been on a winning streak, successfully defending her title 12 times. Her most recent victory was against Lola Vice and Sol Ruca in a Triple Threat match during a house show at Fort Pierce. While the duration of Perez’s second reign with the belt remains uncertain, it is undeniable that she has established herself as a dominant force in the NXT roster.
Perez’s eventual loss of the title will undoubtedly pave the way for the rise of the next big women’s star on the brand. Stay tuned to see how this matchup unfolds and whether Jaida Parker will seize the championship from the formidable Roxanne Perez.
