Mick Foley says latest match put current WWE star "on the map"

WWE legend Mick Foley said that NXT star Roxanne Perez's latest match on the show put her "on the map."

This past week on NXT 2.0, Roxanne Perez faced off against legendary Japanese wrestler Meiko Satomura in an exhilarating encounter.

The bout saw the young star put up a tough fight against the Japanese legend before eventually getting pinned after Satomura hit her Scorpio Rising finisher.

The match impressed fans as well as WWE legend Mick Foley, who took to Twitter to praise the two women for putting on a great contest.

"That match was really something special. The veteran @satomurameiko just put @roxanne_wwe on the map. I will certainly keep my eyes open for this bright new star. @WWENXT," he wrote.

Post-match, Cora Jade rushed into the ring and hit Perez with a kendo stick before Satomura returned to save her. It looks like the Cora Jade-Roxanne Perez saga is far from over.
