Roxanne Perez is officially part of the WWE Raw roster, and the timing couldn’t be more chaotic. Just hours before Monday Night Raw kicked off on May 19, WWE posted a clip to Twitter showing Adam Pearce handing Roxanne a contract, making her move to Raw official.

Monday nights just got even better!” WWE tweeted, with footage of Pearce presenting the contract to a smiling Roxanne, who signed on the dotted line.

The move comes right after Roxanne’s tag team partnership with Giulia fell apart in brutal fashion. After losing to Women’s World Champion IYO SKY and Rhea Ripley on the May 12 episode of Raw, Roxanne and Giulia’s alliance crumbled backstage. Cameras caught Giulia coldly telling Roxanne, “There is no ‘we,’” before walking away, leaving Roxanne stunned.

Now, Roxanne is on her own, but she won’t have time to dwell on it. Pearce announced multiple Money in the Bank qualifying matches, including a huge triple threat featuring Roxanne, Becky Lynch, and Natalya.

Also on the card, Kairi Sane makes her comeback from injury against Rhea Ripley and Zoey Stark in another Money in the Bank qualifier. Jey Uso and Bron Breakker will settle their score in the main event after Breakker’s vicious attack on Uso last week.

With Roxanne’s move to Raw official, the women’s division just got a major shake-up. But can she handle the pressure on her first night as an official Raw Superstar?

Will Roxanne Perez rise to the occasion on Raw, or will her Money in the Bank dreams be crushed by Becky Lynch and Natalya? Please share your thoughts and feedback in the comment section below.
