Former ROH Champion Makes WWE Debut With New Name
April 13, 2022A highly anticipated debut takes place this week.
Last year when we learned that Ring of Honor was releasing everything that there was one person in particular that WWE was interested in signing. We saw that former Ring of Honor Women’s World Champion Rok-C. She was at a tryout last December but was still the champion. Once she did drop the title earlier this year to Deonna Purrazzo we then saw her show up at the WWE Performance Center. Then a few weeks back it was announced she was signed by the company and now we know when she will make her debut.
Last night at the NXT 2.0 tapings before NXT went on the air they filmed this Friday’s edition of NXT LVL UP. On the show, we saw the WWE debut Rok-C under her new name Roxanne Perez. She took on and defeated Sloane Jacobs.

As far as when she will make her Tuesday night NXT 2.0 debut, that is unknown. Perez is someone that we have heard that officials in WWE are very high on her and we think it is only a matter of time before she is on NXT television.
If we do hear anything else regarding the former Rok-C, now Roxanne Perez, making her WWE debut this week, we will have it here and on the PWUnlimited YouTube Channel.
