Speaking on Busted Open Radio, Roxanne was asked if she feels overlooked given the fanfare that Giulia has gotten since joining the company.

"Yeah, I do. I'm the one that kind of built this brand up, I've been here from the beginning of NXT 2.0. I'm putting on a reign that isn't like any other. Then, Giulia comes in and everybody is excited and everyone is talking about Giulia because she's new. Keep in mind, I'm the reason why she came to WWE. I brought her here, because I'm holding [the NXT Women's Title]. She wants this. I think I'm definitely being overlooked. Once I beat her, everyone is going to realize that no one is on my level," she said.

On Tuesday's NXT, Stephanie Vaquer made her debut, saying she'll be waiting for the winner of Giulia vs. Roxanne.
