Roxanne Perez has been crowned the new WWE NXT Women’s Champion.
Perez won the NXT Women’s Title by defeating Mandy Rose in the main event of Tuesday night’s post-Deadline episode of NXT.
Perez earned the title shot by winning the inaugural Women’s Iron Survivor Challenge match this past Saturday night at NXT Deadline. Perez vs. Rose was supposed to take place on January 10 at NXT New Year’s Evil, but Rose attacked Perez from behind in tonight’s opening segment, and Perez said she didn’t want to wait. Rose then accepted the challenge for tonight’s main event, and the match was scheduled.
For Perez, this is her first title run. Rose won her first title reign on October 26, 2021, at NXT Halloween Havoc, when she defeated Raquel Gonzalez in a Trick or Street Fight. Rose then defeated Blair Davenport and Meiko Satomura to unify the NXT Women’s Title and the NXT UK Women’s Title at Worlds Collide on September 4 of this year. Rose held the title for 413 official days.
