Popular WWE star claims she cannot retire until she has a match against AJ Lee
WWE Superstar Roxanne Perez recently claimed that she could not retire from in-ring competition until she has a match against AJ Lee.
The 23-year-old will be in action tonight on RAW in a Women's Elimination Chamber qualifying match against The Judgment Day's Raquel Rodriguez. She is also currently in a rivalry with former WWE Women's Champion Bayley.
In an interview with Ring The Belle, Perez discussed the possibility of Lee returning to the company. The former two-time NXT Women's Champion noted that they are trying to get her to return, and stated that she would not be able to retire until she has had a match against the legend.
"It's going, we're trying you know. Hopefully, one day, she'll come back and maybe we can all do something together. That would be, that would be like my dream. I can't retire until I have a match against AJ Lee. So you know, I can't be 80 years old wrestling either, so," Roxanne Perez said. [2:17 - 2:33]
