WWE legend Booker T praised Roxanne Perez as a standout talent
Booker T, who is Perez's former trainer and coach, spoke highly of the NXT Women's Champion. He stated that he knew from day one, when he saw her, that she had what it takes to become a top superstar in WWE.
"We know about Roxanne. No one expected her [to go] through the ashes and be the one. No one saw that rose rising up through the concrete and blossoming right there in the middle of I-45. That’s Roxanne Perez; No one saw that coming. Did I see that coming? I did. From day one, Roxanne at fantasy camp showed me how bad she wanted it. When she became a part of Reality of Wrestling, I was in awe of her talent and her work ethic," Booker T had said on his Hall of Fame podcast.
Former WWE SmackDown Women's Champion Bayley has also expressed her desire to square off against Roxanne Perez at WrestleMania 41. In an interview with Going Ringside, Bayley stated that although every top women wrestler in the promotion wants to face The Prodigy, she would like to be the first one to get her hands on the two-time NXT Women's Champion. It remains to be seen if Bayley will get her wish fulfilled at WrestleMania next year.
