Rising WWE Raw star Zoey Stark has commented on the difference between NXT and the main roster, opening up about pressure.
Following her call-up to the main roster in the 2023 WWE Draft, Stark aligned herself with Hall of Famer Trish Stratus at Night of Champions, interfering in Stratus’ match against Becky Lynch.
On the June 5 edition of Raw, Stark defeated Natalya to qualify for the Money in the Bank ladder match.
Speaking on Women’s Wrestling Talk, Zoey Stark discussed the spotlight she is under on the main roster, comparing her current run to her stint on NXT.
Noting that she’s thriving under the pressure, Stark said:
“It still does when we’re about five, six weeks in and every single day that I get to walk into work is incredible. I forget sometimes that I get to work with them, it’s so surreal. It’s crazy.
“There’s a lot more pressure on Raw than there was on NXT. A lot more eyeballs looking at you and everyone is standing there watching you and seeing what you can do.
“So, definitely a different feel to it but it’s a good feel, I thrive off the pressure.”
If Stark wins the Money in the Bank ladder match on July 1, she will earn a title match against any women’s titleholder at the time of her choosing.
Stark has teased a feud with a major WWE star ahead of Money in the Bank, which you can read more about right here.
