The current NXT Women's Champion, and a member of the MMA Four Horsewomen, Shayna Baszler has come a long way in such a short amount of time. After leaving Mixed Martial Arts in 2015, Baszler set her sights on making an impact in the professional wrestling world. She was signed to WWE in 2017, making it to the finals of the inaugural Mae Young Classic tournament. She has truly made a name for herself in two short years.

As the only two-time NXT Women's Champion, she's intimidating and powerful. She uses a nasty stomp in an attempt to break her opponents' arms. Alongside fellow horsewomen members, Jessamyn Duke and Marina Shafir, the trio has caused chaos in the NXT women's division. The question that remains is: when Ronda Rousey returns, will her friends join her to turn the rest of the WWE women's division on its head?

Evan has been a wrestling fan since the age of seven, a time when children should not have been watching wrestling. That's right...the attitude era!! He loves talking about wrestling, writing about wrestling, and fantasizing about working for a wrestling company one day. Aside from that, he loves all things pop culture: movies, music, and TV. He also loves to read, travel (even though he doesn't do much of it), and explore new things about this crazy ass world.
