Roxanne Perez health scare: Which WWE legends were present on the night of her collapse?

Roxanne Perez's health has become a talk of concern after WWE NXT's Roadblock event last Tuesday. Both fans and industry veterans have since extended their support to the young superstar.

The 21-year-old had a hard-fought battle against Meiko Satomura at the developmental brand's Roadblock event on March 7, 2023. She retained the NXT Women's Champion and celebrated inside the ring with her opponent, but it was short-lived.

The champion shockingly collapsed in the ring, prompting Meiko, the company's officials, and medical personnel to check on the superstar's health. WWE legends Shawn Michaels and Booker T also came to the aid of Roxanne Perez following her collapse.

Michaels is the creative head of NXT, while Booker T is not only a commentator of the brand but also Roxanne's mentor. This explains why both legends were present for the champion. HBK even shared some words of encouragement for the young superstar after she was sent to a medical facility.

"What happened last night showed that @roxanne_wwe is a fighting champion. She left it all in the ring. I want to wish Roxanne a speedy recovery after a great title defense," Shawn Michaels tweeted.

Fortunately, it looks like Roxanne Perez's health should not be a cause for concern for fans. As previously reported, the injury might not even be real and was just a nod to a similar angle featuring Michaels in the '90s.
