He answered the question he just doesn't agree bully feels like without the proper storyline she won't prosper and booker feels that her talent will out shine poor booking it happens all the time la knight was booked trash from the jump but he's la knight he made it woek
I agree but can her character work shine like that? I’m a fan of her matches. She is amazing. But her character work is her weak point. She is way better as a heel. Can she get enough heat for people to care. But I’m a fan I hope she can.
I think he's saying as long whatever they're doing lands or works, hit the mark.etc the steps they took doesn't matter even if they were unconventional or things you personally wouldn't have done. Booker has the knack of articulating things horribly, but you can still get the gist of what he's saying lol
When I saw Roxanne looking up at the Wrestlemania sign at Stand and Deliver this year and I said "One day." Trust me, Roxanne at Wrestlemania will be a memorable moment
Bully is right it does not matter if you are good if they meaning Trips don't have nothing exactly for you a crystal clear vision like a lot of people have she Roxanne can fall threw the cracks. Booker T is right too when he said I was a talent they made something for me cause my talent spoke volumes. Plus everyone else wants a piece of the action too. They both have a point.
Zoey Stark is the perfect example of someone who should be a top player but because there is just no story plans, all she's doing is padding the midcard to fll time Roxanne and Lyra should have been called up together as a tag team IMO, it would have worked very well. KC squared was never ready for main roster and probably never will be, they're just there to take L's so others don't have to. But there should be a "small girl" tag team, it just works. Alexa and Liv should have did it too back in the day.
@@Parallelocam Zoe Stark your right they don't no what to do with her. Valkyrie beating Damage control helped her get over. Her running that gualet of damage control helped her. Roquel Gonzalez can be a beast but like Zoey stark she is lost in the shuffle.
@@Parallelocam I thought Zoey was going to be an immediate impact star but I think Tiffy stole Zoey's thunder. Tiffy has a better, easier to write for character.
@@xGuillau I think there is just so much talent there and new people coming in all the time, that they just eventually move them to the main roster to in a sink or swim situation and if it doesn’t work they can send them on their way. Cameron Grimes was an awesome wrestler but wasn’t ready and never got a story so I agree with Bully here, but ya can’t keep them on the NXT roster forever.
Kiana probably is ready just doesn't have a gimmick or anything worth being on TV for. She was impressive in NXT, but "business woman" isn't gonna work. The women don't need gimmicks like the men do, they just need good creative Lyra is more than ready and they killed her push wayyyy too fast. Sticking her with the other two short girls killed all of her momentum in an attempt to get them over. Lyra was getting fans behind her pretty fast, I'm guessing they already have their womens main storylines laid out though and she just has to wait her turn Blaire should have never been signed, I just don't see anything in her at all and didn't in AEW either. Abysmal promo and generic look, definitely not a main roster ready project
I think the comment about Bubba not training anyone who made it, piss Bubba off. He said do you want to stick to that comment. All Booker could do is laugh 😂.
The Creed Brothers & Ivy Nile have been on the main roster since November and now in August , 9 months later they’re finally getting tv time. 9 months is a long time to wait for a chance to be on tv.
I raised 73k and Christina Ann Tucker is to be thanked. I got my self my dream car 🚗 just last weekend, My journey with her started after my best friend came back from New York and saw me suffering in dept then told me about her and how to change my life through her. Christina A. Tucker is the kind of person one needs in his or her life! I got a home, a good wife, and a beautiful daughter. Note: this is not a promotion but me trying to make a point that no matter what happens, always have faith and keep living!
Booker T still isnt listening. Bully Ray doesnt want them to go if there isnt a STORY up there for them OR if there isnt someone up there she can work with.
@@thearchitect1I absolutely agree. Book can’t just say “I agree the storyline needs to be right”. Bully, Dreamer and the other guy aren’t working and can give a critique that is uncensored until Book actually retires he has to filter what he says.
Bully made Booker stand on what he said 😭 I’m from the northeast , that’s how we are , be direct or keep it on the play ground . This is a genuine show , they don’t need to say things for ratings or to “stir the pot”… that’s why I don’t listen to alot of channels now .
People can get behind a small babyface like her pretty easily, look at Lyra. The problem is she can't be a heel at her size without having a big girl to back her up. If she's that tiny and can talk smack and back it up, it's too unrealistic. She's wasting her time in NXT alongside people who don't mean anything. She is above the rest of them and is worthy of the call up My two cents is if you're going to call her up, you should be sending someone the main roster isn't using back down to NXT to either help fill her spot or just help the brand in general. To most people, NXT was gutted by vince and just became unwatchable and they never went back. The current crop of talent just doesn't seem all that great to me personally. If you're gonna waste her on NXT, then she should have some reputable names to fight. Not people like lash legend or sol ruca. NXT really needs some kind of rebrand and WWE as a whole should consider sending more people down to NXT. Tozawa could go from being a flunkie to being a reputable challenger for the midcard title
They’re basically saying the same thing. Booker is just saying it’s sink or swim. And Bubba is just saying oh well something has to be planned. It would be nice. I don’t see. What’s the difference of OK? They should have something planned for her or she should make a plan to be in the action 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️. And also, Bubba never said Roxanne put on bad matches. So I don’t know why Booker T. was explaining to him.
I think the biggest main roster downgrade has been Asuka. In NXT she was undefeated killer. Nobody beat her, not even for the championship. They call her up to the main roster, she wins the first women's Royal Rumble and she loses to Charlotte at Wrestlemaina. She counted the lights more often than not ever since. The main roster ruined everything about Asuka.
@@larrylutz6825 I absolutely agree that Kross got a terrible deal also. Kross was pushed hard in NXT, yes, but not quite the level that Asuka was. Being a champion doesn't mean much when you're not being presented as a champion. For years now Asuka has been presented as almost a stereotype/caricature of a Japanese person. I thought they were gonna correct their mistake when she came back with the clown face paint, but they didn't. They stuck her in a group instead of rebuilding the star they once had.
@@goodmooneung Dragunov hasn't been on the main roster long enough for me to make that judgement quite yet. With Gunther being World Champion, Dragunov will most definitely main event a show before long. There's no way Triple H won't have two lock up on a big stage.
I mean if WWE really try with NXT to make it a legit 3rd brand with the move outside the PC and new channel, Roxanne don't need a move up. Then you can move talent across and everyone can eat good, but I guess NXT will always be developmental and I get that
The only issue I have with Roxxane is that she comes off as trying to hard to be AJ Lee, instead of being herself Cora Jade as well, both of them are trying to be AJ Lee
AJ love it or hate it set a precedent that a lot of women who came after her wanted to follow, and since AJ retired also it's WWE itself that's been wanting to still capture that magic in a bottle. Even Nikki Bella was taking things from AJ and they were in the same era.
I like Roxanne, but they need a IC title for the woman. I don't see her as a world champion. She is smaller than Alexa Bliss. Imagine her standing next to a Charlotte or Rhea.
That's what the women's tag titles are basically. The problem is they keep sticking the titles on people with no story and no push so it's forever in a state of "accessory and nothing more"
tbh she wont survive the main roster even if she does improve her promos ( they are soo bad), shell get lost in the shuffle, shes like a kid compared to bianca, jade, charlotte, rhea etc,
Just like some of the guys who can't cut it as the main event stars! They should be taking some of these girls & making them heel & baby face tag teams & build up the division. And signing men & women to tag team contracts, which I read that HHH was talking about that like 3/4 years ago, for both guys & and girls tag teams. WTH happened.
Roxanne is Someone who im very high on but im really Really Nervous about her getting called up Im curious to see which brand she goes. Raw Or SD and how HHH Builds her up Raw's Division has Mami as their biggest Babyface despite Missing Auska due to Injury Lynch Taking time off and has Other stories 1: Liv's Revenge Tour 2: The rise of Valkyria 3: Iyo's potential Babyface turn away from DC on her own or With Kairi to Reform the Sky Pirates 4: Zelina's Online Trend trying to Break into championship contention And SD is Just the Stratton Jax Cargill Belair Flair show. Could she be Build up similar to Tiffany and Iyo. Since the Women's MITB has Been used to Create new stars Liv Iyo and Tiffany despite Vince nearly Giving it to Lacey in 22 and Almost giving it to Trish or Flair in 23 Maybe a Mid card run where she reunites with Cora jade or they take their time and Slowly build her up also don't forget about CM punk Mentioned AJ lee Lately..👀there been rumors about AJ potentially making a comeback.. but. It's up to her. But yeah Also. Lot of people worry about that she's too small for the division. I mean. Same thing was said about Alexa. Iyo. Liv and Kairi who are also Super super small. All of them are 5'1 same height as Roxanne. Except liv who's 5'3 and they did fine on the MR. Especially Bliss sky and Morgan who have wins over Bigger opponents and Became world champions Alexa Liv Kairi all have beaten Nia. And Iyo has wins over Belair and Ripley who are Much taller than Iyo so Roxanne will be fine
Alexa and Zelina are good in the mic. Took Liv a long time to get over. Iyo came in with Bayley and Dakota as their mouth piece. Rox will need to be under someone's wing who can talk. She isn't bad but that's what tends to get smaller women over.
I can't wait to see big Hobbs and quite a few of the other guys and ladies on them shows seriously! Promo's are accurate and fit the talent and their personalities so it feels natural like the golden era of "bully and Booker t Days" for my generation it's almost that good and makes you want to watch
There is really only 3 thing that WWE can do with Roxanne Perez 1. Guila 2. Stephanie V 3. Then bring up to the main roster with Cora Jade and do a mean girls thing. And beat up everyone matter good girls or bad girls.
The issue that I have is NXT is too much participation award. No one is really grinding. There is no real attitude. No real identity. Black and gold everyone made the most of their tv time and matches. They was hungry. Now it’s all colorful and talent just seems like they don’t have to work hard.
There's no money in roxanne as a heel, at least that's my opinion. It's good to let her be a heel for practice but it shouldn't stick. Small heels rarely ever work. She should work her way up to Nia and beat her (if Lyra doesn't first). THEN you bring in cora jade to screw her over in her first defense or something and set up a story.
@@H-TownVibes Frankie Kazarian 100% disagrees with you, and he was a lot closer to the situation. You're incredibly biased for the old black and gold brand, and it's showing.
I Agree that Roxanne Perez should be in the main roster. But NOT as a heel the story they put her in gotta make sense if anything.. Get her to team w/ LWO
WWE should make four main rosters raw and SmackDown and ? And ? Whatever main roster they make or bring back address with a big difference in stories story would have been awesome
@@thadsmith7842 It's not about an opinion. He doesn't listen and then responds to what he thought he heard because he wasn't listening. That's nothing against Booker, I personally like the guy but after listening to his podcast over the years it really highlights it.
Roxanne is definitely ready but WWE can't utilize everyone and at least they are using the women's tag titles but we need another women's title like a IC title or something? NXT is stacked and several wont make it but a lot should make it but they don't have enough TV for everyone at we don't need another show unless it's a all women's show.
WWE should wait and see how the experiment with the women's NA Championship before adding more titles to the main roster. There's barely enough TV time to go around as it is, and just about most of it is being allocated to the men.
To be fair, Mercedes and Sasha banks are not the same talent wise, the same way Paige and Saraya aren't. Taking a long time off like that, it's clearly not like riding a bicycle. I truly believe in her prime, Sasha could carry anyone to a good match. Same with Paige. At this point though, it feels like they both just aren't getting much better.
@@RicoSuavaeyea zelina just has the unfortunate case of having bad gear, no offense to PR, i think all flag gear is cringe unless its cm punk. But zelina cuts a fire promo and is a good worker. The push that sonya is getting should be given to wrestlers like zelina
@@ericrobertson2024 well until kiana and blair have the chance to at least have character they'll be ok, as for roxanne, nah she wont make it to the main roster
I mean, I wouldn't mind having Roxanne on the main roster, once she drops the NXT women's championship is when she should leave. As much as it sucks that Kiana James isn't being used now, Roxanne is too big of a star to ignore.
One thing that grinds my gears is when someones in NXT and they project that theyre ready for the main roster but they themselves dont have a plan of what to do when they get there; and people blame backstage but it has more to do with the star. Its why the greatest of all time were improvisers. There was no "What should i do who should i ask on who i should be" behind their eyes. Example; you wouldve never thought 3D was ever in conversation with writers or creatives 😂 they were just themselves and knew what they wanted to do and projected awareness and real time ring IQ without a look of "What are we doing next" They were never trying to over do it for cheers 😂 and when they were booed they say fck off we're working 😂 it was so good and demanded respect for the craft not sucking up to the fans 😂 imagine telling Paul E the fans dont like his work he'd say fck u 😂
@@BigDic-qz8su i never said anyone was trash thats not how i look at anything 😂 shes talented in the ring, there just arent personas she can work off of that can help her break into who shes chipping away at being both in the ring and on the mic.
@@slimefeeder I think his point was, there have been many well document wrestlers that were not it, but thanks to good pushes and good creative they go places intime. Roman is a perfect example. He was getting his ass whooped like a dog by Baron fucking Corban and covered in dog food. It's been pretty well documented that in WWE that talent do not have the control ya'll seem to think they do. Things don't work like they did in the attitude era or at ECW or WCW. How many stars have been incredibly over with the fans and backstage didn't push them? They could have a mega star on the roster, but if creative and management don't know what to do with them, they sit in catering until their contract expires. Daniel Bryan and the Yes! movement? The fans had to practically riot. How many times have they pushed someone the fans hated? Tripp's is no Vince and it sure seems like he's allowing more freedom sure but he's only one cog in the machine. TL;DR Yeah talent has to be good in the ring, on the mic, think on their feet etc etc but that's only half of it. If backstage isn't behind them, or can't think of what to do with them, then it wont matter how good they are at any of those things.
"The greatest of all time were improvisers". Like who? Austin and The Rock didn't "improvise" their way into the gimmicks or creative plans. They had to take what they were given more times than not and work with it. And as far as 3D goes, they DID have to talk with Vince about high risk matches involving ladders and tables because he didn't want anybody to get seriously hurt or even killed during those matches. He almost called the first TLC match off.
Book so defensive and deflecting. I agree with bully Ray and me personally her promo skills not that good. She’s not a believable heel and don’t have the look for heel. She’s a baby face.
she's from my hometown dude and I think she's doing a good job as a heel she has accomplished more than most of the ex nxt women's roster that went to either raw or smackdown. Lyra Valkyria hasn't won anything. same with shayna bazler
@@arturoalmazan5262 she can wrestle her ass off and is very attractive but as heel she ain’t cutting it. You’re bias anyway because she’s from your hometown. As baby face she would be perfect.
@@arturoalmazan5262 Yo You Sound g00fy asl, chill your "Stan & Simp" out. Just because she's from texas dont mean anything Shayna has won the Nxt title & was undisputed with the title before Roxanne came to WWE.

@@ParallelocamI think they use the tag titles to see if it'll get any reactions from the crowd. Seems like it doesn't work with some of the women...
tbh she wont survive the main roster even if she does improve her promos ( they are soo bad), shell get lost in the shuffle, shes like a kid compared to bianca, jade, charlotte, rhea etc,
Just like some of the guys who can't cut it as the main event stars! They should be taking some of these girls & making them heel & baby face tag teams & build up the division. And signing men & women to tag team contracts, which I read that HHH was talking about that like 3/4 years ago, for both guys & and girls tag teams. WTH happened.
Roxanne is Someone who im very high on but im really Really Nervous about her getting called up
Im curious to see which brand she goes. Raw Or SD and how HHH Builds her up
Raw's Division has Mami as their biggest Babyface despite Missing Auska due to Injury Lynch Taking time off and has Other stories
1: Liv's Revenge Tour
2: The rise of Valkyria
3: Iyo's potential Babyface turn away from DC on her own or With Kairi to Reform the Sky Pirates
4: Zelina's Online Trend trying to Break into championship contention And SD is Just the Stratton Jax Cargill Belair Flair show.
Could she be Build up similar to Tiffany and Iyo. Since the Women's MITB has Been used to Create new stars
Liv Iyo and Tiffany despite Vince nearly Giving it to Lacey in 22 and Almost giving it to Trish or Flair in 23
Maybe a Mid card run where she reunites with Cora jade or they take their time and Slowly build her up also don't forget about CM punk Mentioned AJ lee Lately..👀there been rumors about AJ potentially making a comeback.. but. It's up to her. But yeah
Also. Lot of people worry about that she's too small for the division. I mean. Same thing was said about Alexa. Iyo. Liv and Kairi who are also Super super small. All of them are 5'1 same height as Roxanne. Except liv who's 5'3 and they did fine on the MR. Especially Bliss sky and Morgan who have wins over Bigger opponents and Became world champions Alexa Liv Kairi all have beaten Nia. And Iyo has wins over Belair and Ripley who are Much taller than Iyo so Roxanne will be fine
Alexa and Zelina are good in the mic. Took Liv a long time to get over. Iyo came in with Bayley and Dakota as their mouth piece. Rox will need to be under someone's wing who can talk. She isn't bad but that's what tends to get smaller women over.
I can't wait to see big Hobbs and quite a few of the other guys and ladies on them shows seriously! Promo's are accurate and fit the talent and their personalities so it feels natural like the golden era of "bully and Booker t Days" for my generation it's almost that good and makes you want to watch
Roxanne perez for me been best wwe womens wrestler in WWE this year.
Her matches been fantastic she not the best on promos but getting better
GET OFF THE CRACK HOMIE
There is really only 3 thing that WWE can do with Roxanne Perez
1. Guila
2. Stephanie V
3. Then bring up to the main roster with Cora Jade and do a mean girls thing.
And beat up everyone matter good girls or bad girls.
The issue that I have is NXT is too much participation award. No one is really grinding. There is no real attitude. No real identity. Black and gold everyone made the most of their tv time and matches. They was hungry. Now it’s all colorful and talent just seems like they don’t have to work hard.
There's no money in roxanne as a heel, at least that's my opinion. It's good to let her be a heel for practice but it shouldn't stick. Small heels rarely ever work. She should work her way up to Nia and beat her (if Lyra doesn't first). THEN you bring in cora jade to screw her over in her first defense or something and set up a story.
nah shes too small, shes even smaller than cora, shes not believable
@@H-TownVibes Frankie Kazarian 100% disagrees with you, and he was a lot closer to the situation. You're incredibly biased for the old black and gold brand, and it's showing.
I Agree that Roxanne Perez should be in the main roster. But NOT as a heel the story they put her in gotta make sense if anything.. Get her to team w/ LWO
she will be ready by next year hopefully after Wrestlemania. a feud with bayley would be good or if not on raw going after Morgan
ROXANNE is way better than Liv Morgan she'll make it just fine
I don't know about that
YEAH I LIKE IT! YEA MANG!
Bro where’s the Raw recap? 😢
not on a holiday
who’s Roxanne Perez
The prodigy
WWE should make four main rosters raw and SmackDown and ? And ? Whatever main roster they make or bring back address with a big difference in stories story would have been awesome
They trying the make nxt tbe third brand they just got a TV deal
Think we need Booker and Bully need to square up
5:32 Classic Booker by completely missing the point.
Like u know him personally lol… it’s his opinion good sir.. no right or wrong with personal opinions…
@@thadsmith7842 It's not about an opinion. He doesn't listen and then responds to what he thought he heard because he wasn't listening. That's nothing against Booker, I personally like the guy but after listening to his podcast over the years it really highlights it.
You don't want to said the name but i will... Caramelo Hayes
Bully Butthurt should be his new moniker, foh...Smh
Booker t❤
Oh look who it is it's Slick 😂
@@LadyTreez420 oh look who it is mrs.van fliet 👋
@@SLICK8116 🤣🤣was up
@@LadyTreez420 chilling
I wanted Brad to argue with Dave
Roxanne is definitely ready but WWE can't utilize everyone and at least they are using the women's tag titles but we need another women's title like a IC title or something? NXT is stacked and several wont make it but a lot should make it but they don't have enough TV for everyone at we don't need another show unless it's a all women's show.
WWE should wait and see how the experiment with the women's NA Championship before adding more titles to the main roster. There's barely enough TV time to go around as it is, and just about most of it is being allocated to the men.
Can anybody give me a update on cora jade pls?
Is Booker T just playing stupid and not understanding what Bully is saying 😐
He’s just being a smart WWE employee with the answer. Gotta be careful with shoot questions.
Roxanne like Mercedes is good with good opponents but the rest isn't too good.
To be fair, Mercedes and Sasha banks are not the same talent wise, the same way Paige and Saraya aren't. Taking a long time off like that, it's clearly not like riding a bicycle. I truly believe in her prime, Sasha could carry anyone to a good match. Same with Paige. At this point though, it feels like they both just aren't getting much better.
Just because you think that such and such is ready for the main roster doesn't mean that they truly are ready.
Booker saying absolutely nothing 😂😂
Bully’s right
I’ll take Roxanne Perez over Zelina Vega any day!
The story is to put Roxanne up against Zelina and whoever loses the feud gets demoted to NXT.
Zelina been doing her thing bro, I like Roxanne to but not to replace someone
@@RicoSuavaeyea zelina just has the unfortunate case of having bad gear, no offense to PR, i think all flag gear is cringe unless its cm punk. But zelina cuts a fire promo and is a good worker. The push that sonya is getting should be given to wrestlers like zelina
@@RicoSuavaeword bro. There's room for both. I rather like zelina, certainly more than one Mercedes Mone over on the other side of the street.
@@lazcoroner1483 I’ll take zelina over her anyday. They just don’t give her a chance
Yes she is, and she has been for over a year.
I don’t think she has the star power and character for the main roster, she will fail like ember moon did
Yup. The main roster has too many cooks in the kitchen right now. She's got a long road ahead of her, don't ruin the first impression.
Kiana and Blair aren't exactly being booked favorably, Roxanne likely won't be either.
@@ericrobertson2024 well until kiana and blair have the chance to at least have character they'll be ok, as for roxanne, nah she wont make it to the main roster
@@timkruse9912 idk why , she's fine in the ring but Roxanne bores me to sleep..Kiana nor Blair never did
4:47
I hope she stays @ NXT UMMM REMEMBER INDI HARTWELL??
I mean, I wouldn't mind having Roxanne on the main roster, once she drops the NXT women's championship is when she should leave. As much as it sucks that Kiana James isn't being used now, Roxanne is too big of a star to ignore.
One thing that grinds my gears is when someones in NXT and they project that theyre ready for the main roster but they themselves dont have a plan of what to do when they get there; and people blame backstage but it has more to do with the star. Its why the greatest of all time were improvisers. There was no "What should i do who should i ask on who i should be" behind their eyes. Example; you wouldve never thought 3D was ever in conversation with writers or creatives 😂 they were just themselves and knew what they wanted to do and projected awareness and real time ring IQ without a look of "What are we doing next" They were never trying to over do it for cheers 😂 and when they were booed they say fck off we're working 😂 it was so good and demanded respect for the craft not sucking up to the fans 😂 imagine telling Paul E the fans dont like his work he'd say fck u 😂
A lot of people we're trash when tbey first started whats ykhr point
@@BigDic-qz8su i never said anyone was trash thats not how i look at anything 😂 shes talented in the ring, there just arent personas she can work off of that can help her break into who shes chipping away at being both in the ring and on the mic.
@@slimefeeder I think his point was, there have been many well document wrestlers that were not it, but thanks to good pushes and good creative they go places intime. Roman is a perfect example. He was getting his ass whooped like a dog by Baron fucking Corban and covered in dog food. It's been pretty well documented that in WWE that talent do not have the control ya'll seem to think they do. Things don't work like they did in the attitude era or at ECW or WCW. How many stars have been incredibly over with the fans and backstage didn't push them? They could have a mega star on the roster, but if creative and management don't know what to do with them, they sit in catering until their contract expires. Daniel Bryan and the Yes! movement? The fans had to practically riot. How many times have they pushed someone the fans hated? Tripp's is no Vince and it sure seems like he's allowing more freedom sure but he's only one cog in the machine.
TL;DR Yeah talent has to be good in the ring, on the mic, think on their feet etc etc but that's only half of it. If backstage isn't behind them, or can't think of what to do with them, then it wont matter how good they are at any of those things.
"The greatest of all time were improvisers". Like who? Austin and The Rock didn't "improvise" their way into the gimmicks or creative plans. They had to take what they were given more times than not and work with it. And as far as 3D goes, they DID have to talk with Vince about high risk matches involving ladders and tables because he didn't want anybody to get seriously hurt or even killed during those matches. He almost called the first TLC match off.
Roxanne Raquel tag team champs
Book so defensive and deflecting. I agree with bully Ray and me personally her promo skills not that good. She’s not a believable heel and don’t have the look for heel. She’s a baby face.
I Agree
she's from my hometown dude and I think she's doing a good job as a heel she has accomplished more than most of the ex nxt women's roster that went to either raw or smackdown. Lyra Valkyria hasn't won anything. same with shayna bazler
@@arturoalmazan5262 she can wrestle her ass off and is very attractive but as heel she ain’t cutting it. You’re bias anyway because she’s from your hometown. As baby face she would be perfect.
@@arturoalmazan5262 Yo You Sound g00fy asl, chill your "Stan & Simp" out. Just because she's from texas dont mean anything Shayna has won the Nxt title & was undisputed with the title before Roxanne came to WWE. Its obvious you just started watching wrestling yesterday became a fan of Roxanne all of a sudden. Catch up or Stfu.
@@arturoalmazan5262 I know you're not saying she's more accomplished than Shayna Baszler
Love
Lyra Valkyria... nuff said.
She kinds looks like Roxanne and vice versa lol
@@VladSokolov-i5z whatever you say user...
What is this high school 😂
There doing it to kianna James right now
Kianna and Roxanne two separate animals c'mon
than you haven't watched much of her work then
Where?
Roxanne is too small to be a heel and talk smack on the main roster. She would definitely need some muscle with her to continue being a heel.
I can’t stand Dave I respect all the rest
You know Booker gonna be bias
@@dangelobrown87 💯
Shurrrup Tommy
Roxanne's character and demeanor isnt just there yet. At times her acting has been cringe and not believable enough esp right now as a heel.
Nothing legreca and bully ray are jokes

Ahhhhahahaha bubba is gonna bust hahhaa
GI SKRO
Is it just me or was this whole video a bunch of nothing. Booker t kept saying the same thing. And bully did as well and t didnt understand the question so it was a circle the whole time
She will get lost in main roster .
She needs mic work.
