Masha Slamovich recently signed a contract with IMPACT Wrestling after her appearance at Knockouts Knockdown against Deonna Purrazzo.
In additional news for Shafir, she recently revealed that she was originally set to be part of NXT 2.0’s Diamond Mine:
“I thought I was gonna be part of it from the beginning. But they just had other plans. What could I do with it? I can’t be upset when somebody else’s mind is made up. I have my feelings about it. I’ve trained with Ivy Nile since she got to the PC pretty much.
If anybody’s a fitting character for that position, she’s gonna learn a lot. She’s gonna learn so much in that position. I just hope that she carries it and makes it a big fucking thing.
Female fighters, female MMA athletes are more and more of a predominant fucking thing in the athletic scene. It’s still the shock and the conversations that I’ve had with people who are still so surprised at how intense and how hard and how consistent female athletes are in the gym nowadays, it’s hilarious.
For me, I just hope that she really understands how big this role can be for her. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again if anybody gets the green light in the past and the thumbs up, I’m giving it to her. It’s just a great spot to be in to learn”
