What happened to Roxanne Perez? WWE provides a major health update after concerning collapse on NXT

WWE NXT Superstar Roxanne Perez's health has caused major concern among fans after she collapsed following a match at the Roadblock event. Fortunately, the current state of the champion is no longer a cause for worry.

A recent update from WWE's Twitter account stated that Roxanne Perez was already discharged from the hospital. She is currently resting at home following her collapse last week.

"Update: Roxanne Perez has been discharged from the hospital and is now at home resting."

During the developmental brand's March 7, 2023 Roadblock event, the 21-year-old superstar defended her NXT Women's Championship against Meiko Satomura. After a hard-fought and exciting bout between the two, the champion retained the title. However, Perez's celebration was cut short after she collapsed inside the ring.

Satomura, WWE officials, medical personnel, Shawn Michaels, and even Booker T entered the ring to check on Perez. She was then stretchered out of the location and taken to a medical facility.

The Stamford-based promotion later provided an update stating Perez spent overnight in the hospital for further testing. Fortunately, it looks like Roxanne Perez's health isn't a cause for concern.

According to reports, the NXT Women's Champion didn't really suffer from an injury, and it was possibly a nod from a similar angle from HBK in the '90s. Both superstars received several blows to the head, perhaps leading to an "injury."
