2. Roxanne Perez

Last Month’s Ranking: N/A

Last Month’s Segments: Known affectionately as Rok-C, the 23-year-old former NXT Champion has been in a heated rivalry with Raw superstar Bayley over the past few weeks. Perez would cost Bayley a win in a match against WWE women’s champion Tiffany Stratton after an exchange on NXT earlier in that same week. Roxanne entering the Royal Rumble could gain her back some much-needed momentum after losing her women’s championship to Giulia earlier this year.

Royal Rumble In-Ring Performance: The earlier you enter the Rumble, the less likely you are to win the match. After entering at #3, Perez found her back against the wall against 29 other incredible women. Roxxane had a historic performance in this year’s Royal Rumble match, lasting over 1 hour and 7 minutes and shattering the record (previously held by Liv Morgan) for longest time spent by a woman in the match. She also tasted a bit of revenge when she eliminated the NXT Champion Giulia. After outlasting the rest of the field, Rok-C came up short in her quest to win the Royal Rumble, but she undoubtedly established herself as a mainstay for years to come.
