Punk emphasized, “If they move on to ‘NXT,’ I’m eager to see their interactions with Roxanne Perez. I believe it will result in some incredible matches.” Perez has openly acknowledged her close relationship with Punk and his wife, AJ Lee, mentioning how Punk has inspired her throughout her career. With the guidance of Punk and Lee, Perez has the potential to carve out a profound legacy in the main roster, potentially rivaling both Punk and Lee.
