Roxanne Perez isn't just any rising star she's a proven performer. She’s held the NXT Women’s Crown twice, showing she can handle major, stage-heavy moments. Though since she’s moved to WWE’s main lineup, she feels more like a backup dancer than the lead. WWE hasn’t given her the space, the storyline arcs, or the spotlight she deserves. In short: they dropped the ball.
Roxanne Perez Has Talent Why It’s Underused Since joining The Judgment Day, Roxanne has often been cast in supporting roles: tag matches, group angles, even romantic subplots. To add further context, and while those are fine, they don’t let her shine. For someone who has ruled solo in NXT, being “Raquel Rodriguez’s partner” or “Dominic Mysterio’s love interest” keeps her stuck beneath what she’s capable of. Imagine having an ace pitcher but only letting them play outfield. Furthermore, that’s what WWE’s doing with Roxanne. You know they’ve got the arm and yet, they’re never on the mound when the game is on the line.
What WWE Needs To Do To Fix This If WWE is looking to Roxanne Perez to fulfill her potential and keep the fans invested here’s what they should do:
What WWE Should Do Why It Matters How It Could Look In Practice Give her a singles strong booking Separates her from the pack; lets her develop character without distractions One-on-one feuds on Raw, written promos showing her personality Ensure meaningful story arcs Supporters remember stories; they build loyalty and investment Program with a veteran, betrayal, redemption arc Showcase her wrestling ability She’s already proven she can deliver exciting matches Main roster matches with top women in ring Elevate her Championship chances Having a belt makes her feel legit – both to her and the audience Title match – maybe challenge for Women’s World Championship The Opportunity Is Now WWE has a real opening to make Roxanne Perez a star, not just a mid-card name. With the women’s division in flux, audiences are craving fresh faces, authentic stories, and athletic matches. She checks all those boxes already. If WWE reshapes her trajectory now after her success in NXT they’ll set up a narrative people will care about, not just watch out of obligation. In a connected development, wWE’s legacy isn’t built just on sizable names it’s built on turning new stars into legends. Roxanne can be one of them.
Conclusion Roxanne Perez has earned her stripes on NXT — in championship matches, and under pressure. Adding to the story, what she hasn’t earned (yet) is the main-roster push that reflects that work. If they do that, they captured’t just fix an oversight they’ll gain a genuine star. Furthermore, wWE has an opportunity to correct course: give her wrestling matches that matter, stories that grow, and main event chances. If they don’t, it’ll be another promising talent lost in the shuffle.
