Serena Deeb to Make Wrestling Return at April SHIMMER Events

SerenaSHIMMER Women Athletes have just announced the return of former WWE Diva Serena Deeb to their fold – she’ll be making her first in-ring appearance in well over a year at their SHIMMER 53 event (as part of WrestleCon) on April 6th in Secaucus, NJ.

She’ll also be competing at their tapings of Volumes 54-57 that will be held a week later on April 13th and 14th at the Berwyn Eagles Club in Berwyn, IL.

SHIMMER writes:

One of the most beloved athletes in SHIMMER history, Serena has had many memorable moments throughout her SHIMMER tenure. Serena debuted back in May of 2006 at SHIMMER 5, and slowly climbed the ranks to eventually achieve main event status. Some of Serena’s truly breakout matches were her bouts against 1st SHIMMER Champion Sara Del Rey. It was at SHIMMER 22 that Serena pulled off one of the biggest wins of her career when she hit her signature spear on Del Rey, to hand Sara a rare pinfall loss in SHIMMER competition. That victory earned her a shot at 2nd SHIMMER Champion MsChif in the main event of SHIMMER 23.

Following a stint in WWE, Serena shocked the Berwyn Eagles Club crowd by making a surprise return at SHIMMER 33. She quickly became involved in a heated rivalry with Portia Perez, resulting in several singles and tag team clashes against Portia and her partner Nicole Matthews. The main event of SHIMMER 41 featured an epic contest between Serena and 3rd SHIMMER Champion Madison Eagles for the title. Serena then went on to settle her score with Perez at SHIMMER 43 after nailing Portia with the spear off of a table.

Serena was unfortunately forced onto the sidelines during October of 2011 after suffering a concussion. She wisely did not immediately return to active competition, to allow for her body to fully heal before choosing to step back inside the ring. After an 18 month absence, Serena will make her highly anticipated return to SHIMMER action on April 6th at WrestleCon, less than eight weeks away!

In October 2011, Serena announced an indefinite hiatus from the world of wrestling after suffering a serious concussion.

It is certainly a pleasant surprise to hear that she has received a clean bill of health from her doctors and will be returning to action once more. All the best to Serena in her wrestling return!
