Roxanne Perez isn’t backing down from Bayley—in fact, she’s calling her out. The NXT star showed up in the crowd during the January 17 episode of SmackDown, watching closely as Bayley took on WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton. This came just days after the two brawled on the January 14 edition of WWE NXT.
In a SmackDown digital exclusive, Perez didn’t hold back when asked why she was there. “Everyone knows that I’m such a huge, huge fan of Bayley, so I was just so excited to come out here and have a front-row seat to watch her fail miserably, which she did.”
She then flipped the script, inviting Bayley to show up on NXT again for the January 21 episode. But instead of just throwing out a challenge, Perez took things a step further, questioning whether Bayley even has what it takes anymore.
“I always thought that I was the big fan, but it seems like she’s actually mine since she wants to show up at my show and stick her nose in my business. So yeah, Bayley. Come on down. Come back and maybe this time around, I can give you some notes on how to be a champion since I don’t think you got it anymore.”
Roxanne Perez just put Bayley on blast, and now the ball is in The Role Model’s court. If Bayley shows up on NXT, things could get messy fast, but if she stays quiet, Perez might just have a point. Either way, this feud isn’t cooling down anytime soon.
Should Bayley accept Roxanne Perez’s challenge and head back to WWE NXT? Or is Perez in over her head? Please share your thoughts and feedback in the comment section below.
