Marina Shafir & The MMA Horsewomen

Marina Shafir, wife of NXT Tag Team Campion Roderick Strong, is a member of Ronda Rousey’s ‘MMA Horsewomen’ faction. The stable consists of Ronda Rousey, NXT Women’s Champion Shayna Baszler, Jessamyn Duke and Shafir.

Shafir’s debut brings us one step closer to all 4 members of the MMA Horsewomen being active competitors in WWE.

Jessamyn Duke, another Horsewoman, was also expected to debut at the NXT Largo show. Earlier this week, Duke tweeted that she would be making her debut alongside Jessamyn Duke, but she did not appear and later deleted the tweet.
