Roxanne Perez Will Defend NXT Women's Title Against Thea Hail At NXT Great American Bash

Roxanne Perez demands respect and gets a Kimura Lock instead.

Roxanne Perez came out to address the NXT Universe on the July 16 NXT. She spoke about how she's not trying to compete with the Charlotte Flairs of the world. Rather, she's trying to establish her own legacy. Perez even addressed two of the hottest signings coming to NXT, Giulia and Stephanie Vaquer. Perez said it pisses her off when she reads online that these two women are expected to come in and dominate NXT. She then referenced Thea Hail as her next opponent at the NXT Great American Bash, leading the Chase University gold star student to come to the ring.

Roxanne Perez said that she might want the NXT Championship, but the NXT Championship is not for "little girls." Hail put Perez in the Kimura Lock, and Ridge Holland had to run out to pull Thea off the WWE NXT Women's Champion.
