Cora Jade Is Happy For Roxanne Perez’ NXT Success: ‘She’s The Best In The World Right Now’

Cora Jade allied with her old friend/rival Roxanne Perez upon her return to NXT TV, and she’s happy to be by the champion’s side again. Jade and Perez have a long history in and out of NXT, which included Jade turning heel on Perez back in July of 2022 which led to a heated feud between them. Jade weighed in on her time away due to injury and more in an interview with The Masked Man Show and said she’s happy to see Perez find singles success in WWE.

“It sucks being out for that long and watching,” Jade said of her time away (per Fightful). “It seems like everyone is kind of just passing you by and you kind of just have to sit there and have no choice in the matter. If it was going to anybody, I’m so glad it was her. I think she’s the most deserving person in the world. We have a very similar story coming up both wrestling fans, both AJ Lee crazy fans, we both did the indies and wanted to come to WWE. We both started super young. We have such a similar story and I think we just gravitated towards each other.”

Jade continued, “She’s incredible, she can wrestle incredibly, she can speak incredibly, she looks great. She’s a star through and through. I mean, she’s passionate too, so if anyone deserves it, it’s her and I’m glad to be by her side for this. She’s the best wrestler in the world right now.”
