In a recent interview with the WWE After The Bell podcast, WWE NXT Women’s Champion Roxanne Perez commented on being recently crowned the new Champion following her victory over Mandy Rose.

“Well, I’m sure as everyone saw, as soon as that bell rang, I just burst into tears and they were real tears, I think just like all of the trials and tribulations, everything that I went through since I was 13 years old to get to this moment just started replaying in my head, and I was like wow.

All of those moments, even the super bad moments, they were worth it, because in that moment, winning the NXT Championship, just becoming a WWE Champion, that was my biggest dream since I was 10 years old. The fact that it happened, the fact that it was real, it didn’t feel real in the moment, there were just so many emotions that came out of me that night.”
