Raquel Rodriguez Explains Why She Prefers Being A Heel Over Being A ‘Supergirl’ Babyface

Raquel Rodriguez explains why she prefers her heel character over her ‘supergirl’ babyface character.

Rodriguez has both been a babyface and a heel during her time on the WWE main roster, currently being part of The Judgment Day faction alongside her tag team partner Liv Morgan as a heel. Prior to that, Rodriguez was a notable babyface in the women’s division, showcasing her power and athleticism.

While speaking to the Michael Fairman Channel in a new interview, Raquel Rodriguez spoke about being a babyface and a heel, noting that she prefers being a heel instead of a ‘supergirl’ babyface.

“It was an interesting time when they had me in that badass supergirl era. Thank you, I love that term for her. She was a badass supergirl era. If anyone was going to be Wonder Woman on WWE, it would be Raquel Rodriguez. RR. I did like it. It was fun, you know, getting to be a good guy, being able to, like, hug kids and interact with them in a nice way and know that they look up to me that way but there’s something about being this Raquel Rodriguez that feels like the most authentic version to myself even though I don’t think I’m like this, I like children, yes. I’m not gonna like yell at you guys, you know. But I like to tease and I like to have fun with every situation, and so this version of Raquel Rodriguez, she is a badass and that’s me in real life, and I think like me being the jokester that I am and just being me has really given me a new light, and I just love her more, and I don’t want to go back to the cool supergirl that I was.”

In the 2026 NFL Draft, Rodriguez would announce a pick for the Houston Texans. You can read more about that here.
