News about Shayna Baszler

Australian WWE superstar Rhea Ripley has left her legion of fans searching for answers after she delivered some stunning news about her pro wrestling career. The 27-year-old recently turned in a commanding performance (inset) at WrestleMania 40.

On Saturday night, Ripley was in action in Illinois, facing Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler in a match at the Bank Of Springfield Center. With Damian Priest, Finn Balor, Dominik Mysterio, and JD McDonagh, the new women's world champion has made a name for herself in WWE, becoming one of the most popular characters in the Judgement Day incarnation. Although she has shined in-ring during her short WWE career and will meet Becky Lynch at WrestleMania in just under a fortnight's clock, she has also captured fans' hearts for her personality and cheeky aura.

XCLUSIVE: Shayna Baszler was one of the most popular NXT champions of all time during her time with the fabled black and gold brand, but she has yet to experience world champion glory on the main roster. If one of the women's Elimination Chamber contestants does not attend, Submission Magician, a former MMA fighter with a 15-11 record, is in Perth on standby. However, many fans are waiting for more from Baszler as one of Triple H's brightest lights during their NXT days. Baszler turned on real-life best friend Ronda Rousey at the Money in the Bank event in London, what seemed to be on us last summer.

On Saturday, the former women's champion lost to former tag team partner and fellow former MMA actor Shayna Baszler at the company's most recent Premium Live Event, SummerSlam. Since returning to the Royal Rumble in 2022, winning the SmackDown women's championship before being disqualified, the ex-UFC champion has had a mixed second stint with the tournament. Baszler was the current tag team champion alongside Baszler before Baszler turned on Rousey at the Money in the Bank in London, sparking their feud.

Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn, collectively referred to as the Unholy Union, will face Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler, and the pair admit to being mad not to compete with the two Superstars. Both the NXT Tag Team Championships and Rousey and Baszler's WWE Tag Team Championships are on the line in a unification match on Friday. Two Scottish stars, who were mainstays of WWE's NXT UK brand before deciding to the United States and competing on NXT, have risen quickly. Fyre and Dawn joined forces and tasted championship gold in NXT, gaining enough to warrant a move to SmackDown in last month's WWE draft. Mail Sport spoke to the superstars about their switch to the blue brand and their current position in the women's tag team division, ahead of their biggest WWE match to date.
