Raquel Rodriguez wants to tap into other layers of her character.
Rodriguez rose to stardom in NXT and had a lengthy run as the NXT Women's Champion. In 2022, she made her debut on the main roster on the April 8 episode of WWE SmackDown, and she has been a prominent member of the blue brand ever since. Among other highlights, Rodriguez has feuded with Ronda Rousey. Alongside Aliyah, she also had a brief run as one-half of the WWE Women's Tag Team Champions.
Speaking on WWE After The Bell with Corey Graves, Rodriguez was asked to describe what the WWE Universe can look forward to seeing from her in the future. She responded by stating that she's just getting started, and she wants to show different sides of her character. Rodriguez also expressed her excitement as she noted that her journey is just getting started.
“I think the WWE Universe has a lot to look forward to because I’m just getting started. I feel like you guys have only seen one layer of Raquel Rodriguez. There’s just so many more that I want to bring out. I want to bring out the bad side of Raquel Rodriguez, I want to bring out the hardcore side of Raquel Rodriguez, I want to bring out the extreme Raquel Rodriguez. There’s just so much more that I want to do on SmackDown and on Raw and in general in WWE. I’m just so excited that this is the beginning of my journey, and it’s not even close to being over, which is kind of scary too," Rodriguez said with a laugh.
