Following the news earlier this week that TNA has launched an internal investigation into alleged domestic violence from Masha Slamovich towards her ex-partner Alexander Atkisson, aka pro wrestler AKIRA, Slamovich has issued a public statement on these accusations.

Those accusations were first raised by X user Bam/Jasmine, a friend of AKIRA's, who included a Dropbox link to 114 images of alleged evidence of domestic violence.

In response, Masha has said the following:

Additionally, Fightful Select reports that Masha Slamovich's existing TNA deal is due to expire "relatively soon". It was previously uncertain whether the former TNA Knockouts Champion would remain with the Anthem promotion, with plentiful speculation that Slamovich could potentially head to WWE following a handful of appearances in NXT as part of the ongoing working relationship between those promotions.

As for those wondering if Masha was pulled from TNA's "invasion" of NXT this Tuesday, Fightful adds that she was never planned for that show, and that she's currently in Spain at the moment. Fightful hadn't heard of any plans for Slamovich to be involved in this invasion, but the outlet notes how that was down to her contract situation.

Masha Slamovich was scheduled to face Knockouts Champion Ash by Elegance at TNA Victory Road this Friday, but that match is now in question. While there has been no outright confirmation that the match will no longer take place, any mention of the bout has been removed from TNA's website.
