Jessamyn Duke And Marina Shafir Make WWE Raw Debuts
Marina Shafir and Jessamyn Duke have arrived on WWE Raw.
The former MMA fighters made a brief cameo appearance alongside Shayna Baszler following Baszler’s victory over Bayley in tag team action. Later in the night, Baszler talked Shane McMahon into having them compete on Raw Underground. Shafir competed on Raw Underground, taking out Brandi Lauren in the “shoot fight” bout.

Shafir’s celebration didn’t last long as she was attacked by Nia Jax. It looked like Jax was going to square off with Baszler, but Jax bailed as the bell rang.

Baszler has been linked to Shafir and Duke since their days together in MMA. The three women are part of the MMA Four Horsewomen alongside former Raw Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey.
Shafir & Duke signed with WWE in May 2018 and have been trainees at the Performance Center. The two have been seldom used on NXT television over the years.
