Roxanne Perez seized a major opportunity at Triplemania 34 on Friday night in Las Vegas, securing the No. 1 contender position for the AAA Reina de Reinas Championship. The young WWE star faced a formidable trio—Nattie (Natalya), AAA veteran La Hiedra, and Lucha Libre legend Faby Apache—and emerged victorious.
Hard‑Fought Victory
From the opening bell, Perez was outnumbered as her three opponents ganged up and tossed her out of the ring. The match grew chaotic when Flammer, the reigning champion, briefly intervened to aid La Hiedra. Undeterred, Perez turned the tide by pushing La Hiedra into Flammer and delivering a decisive Pop Rox, pinning La Hiedra for the win.
What Comes Next
With the No. 1 contender spot secured, Perez now looks ahead to the upcoming Worlds Collide event at the end of the month. There she will face either reigning champion Flammer or La Catalina, who will contest the title on Night 2 in Mexico City.
Speaking to OutKick before the match, Perez acknowledged the challenge but expressed confidence: “It definitely is a big task. I have a big opportunity right in front of me that I know I’m gonna take… I’m not underestimating every woman in this match because they’re legends in their own right.” She praised her opponents, noting La Hiedra’s deep knowledge of AAA, Nattie’s legacy in WWE’s Divas era, and Faby Apache’s standing in Lucha Libre.
“I have a lot on my plate right now, but it’s nothing that ‘The Prodigy’ can’t overcome,” Perez added, referring to her own nickname. “I’ve been waiting for one opportunity and I finally have it, and I’m not going to let it slip through my fingers.”
As the crowd cheered, La Hiedra and Flammer exchanged words in the ring, underscoring the rivalry that will shape the upcoming title bout. Perez’s triumph adds another compelling storyline to the women’s wrestling scene, highlighting the growing prominence of female athletes in both WWE and AAA.
