NXT just got leveled up their judo skills. Just two months after joining the WWE’s Performance Center in Florida, MMA Four Horsewoman Marina Shafir has made her in-ring debut.
Last night (Jul. 26) at a WWE-NXT house show, Shafir teamed with vet Nikki Cross in a match versus Rhea Ripley and Aliyah.
With Jessamyn Duke also training at the WWE Performance Center, Shayna Baszler the current NXT women’s champion and Ronda Rousey set for a WWE women’s title match next month, all of MMA’s Four Horsewomen are now at various stages of their pro wrestling journeys.
