In a recent interview with The New York Post, WWE NXT Women’s Champion Roxanne Perez discussed several topics, including her segment with CM Punk during an episode of WWE NXT last month.

“That was, oh my gosh, I mean to have an in-ring promo with like the best promo I think ever was so insane, it definitely was like a pinch-me monent, but the fact that I’ve been able to create a friendship with him and sit under his learning tree for months now, I think being able to have that relationship definitely made me so much more comfortable.

I do remember getting in the ring and starting to say my lines and just really feeling it, because I was just like wow, this is insane, I’m standing in the ring with someone that I looked up to my whole life.

A part of me was like, well I can’t believe this, but another part of me was like wait, I can believe this, because this is everything I’ve ever worked for, I felt like I definitely stood my ground, I gave him a little bit of attitude, something that he would have done a few years ago.”
