LAS VEGAS – WWE star Roxanne Perez is the only woman in The Judgment Day faction who has yet to achieve championship gold, but that all could change by the end of the month.
Perez’s pursuit of the AAA Reina de Reinas Championship begins on Friday night when she takes part in a fatal four-way match against La Hiedra, Faby Apache and Nattie in Night 1 of Triplemania 34 in Las Vegas with the winner getting a title shot at Worlds Collide.

Usually, when it comes to “Monday Night Raw,” The Judgment Day has each other’s backs. Perez and Raquel Rodriguez would come out to support Liv Morgan during her matches. The same when she’s in a match or Rodriguez is in a scrap. But when Perez spoke to OutKick Dropkick ahead of the No. 1 contender match, Morgan and Rodriguz were nowhere to be found.
“I think they know that I got this. I think they know that I came all the way over here to take an opportunity for myself,” she said. “I think being surrounded by champions and obviously there is not another opportunity for a title on the main roster right now because my girls are killing it. So obviously I just thought ‘The Prodigy’ doesn’t stay complacent. ‘The Prodigy’ doesn’t stay comfortable. So what did I do? I came all the way to AAA to get a championship of my own.”
It will be Perez’s first Triplemania event – the premier showcase for the AAA roster.
She told OutKick Dropkick she initially received an opportunity to go down to AAA and train at the Mexican promotion but her parents didn’t receive it well. She described the opportunity now as a full-circle moment of sports.

“I’m so excited. So, um, a little backstory, I have been training to become a WWE superstar since I was 13 years old, and when I was 16, I actually had an invitation to come to AAA, train here, be on their shows, and that was really something that I wanted to do because, obviously I wanted to wrestle all around the world and make a big name for myself, but, I was 16 years old so my parents weren’t fully in on that,” she said.
“So, I didn’t get to take that opportunity but now AAA is a part of WWE and I’m taking my opportunity and I’m not asking for permission from anybody. I’m so excited to be here and also to just represent my culture. I am Mexican and I’m Puerto Rican, So, to be able to represent that and be here as a main roster WWE superstar, it’s really exciting.”
Perez understands the task at hand is a tall one but has no concerns about letting the opportunity to potentially get a championship shot at Worlds Collide pass her by.
“It definitely is a big task. I have a big opportunity right in front of me that I know I’m gonna take. I know that I’m gonna go straight to Worlds Collide and become Reina de Reinas champion, but also I am not underestimating every woman that is in this match because like you said, legends in all different aspects,” she said. “La Hiedra knows AAA inside and out. Natalya (Nattie), she’s a legend in in WWE in the Divas era. She’s a trailblazer for us women. She didn’t get these opportunities before and she worked to make sure that all of us got these opportunities. So, I respect her so much for that. Faby Apache, a legend in the Lucha Libre world.

“So yeah, I have a lot on my plate right now, but it’s nothing that ‘The Prodigy’ can’t overcome. ‘The Prodigy’ has gone through so much the past 10 years of me wrestling, and if anybody thinks that I’m just gonna let this opportunity slip away, I’ve been waiting for one opportunity and I finally have it and I’m not gonna let it slip through my fingers.”
