On the current episode of the “Cheap Heat” podcast, WWE NXT Women’s Champion Roxanne Perez kept in mind the time when WWE called her after Ring of Honor revealed their hiatus in 2021.
Perez stated that WWE desired her to go to a tryout in early December that very same year. Perez’s agreement with Ring of Honor was not due to end till later on that month, the business allowed her to take part in the tryout with the support and assistance of Maria Kanellis-Bennett, who was part of Ring of Honor management.
You can take a look at some highlights from the podcast listed below:
On how William Regal connected to her: “It was simply insane, best time (when WWE called me about can be found in), and at the time, it was still early December. My agreement (with ROH) ended in late December so he (William Regal) resembled, ‘You understand, we wan na bring you in, you understand, early December’ and I didn’t believe I was going to have the ability to do it since my agreement still lasted up until completion of December.”
On Maria Kanellis-Bennett’s response: “But I spoke with Maria (Kanellis-Bennett) about it and she was so pleased. It was so good to see how helpful all of them were, due to the fact that when I did inform them, it made them so pleased since that’s what Maria was attempting to do this entire time. That’s all she was attempting to do, develop more chances for females. She produced this Ring of Honor ladies’s department, she brought it back to life and she made it incredible and after that all she desired was for us to be able to get chances out of it so when I informed her about it, she was so fired up. She provided me such excellent suggestions. She informed me, ‘I’m constantly gon na be here. If you ever require somebody to speak with, simply call me’ therefore, yeah, I wound up speaking with her about that. They wound up simply letting me do the tryout while my agreement was still in location. They resembled, ‘Yeah, you understand, there’s not gon na be any chances in January with us. You’re great. You can proceed and do that tryout.'”
