Masha Slamovich Says Scott D’Amore Was An Incredible Leader And Helped Many Careers

Masha Slamovich praises Scott D’Amore. 

On February 7, Anthem announced that Scott D’Amore’s contract with the company was terminated and he would no longer be President of TNA Wrestling. Anthony Cicione was named as his replacement.

Masha Slamovich was signed by TNA in 2021 after a bout with Deonna Purrazzo, and appearing on In The Weeds with Jeremy Lambert & Joel Pearl, commented on D’Amore’s impact in TNA. 

“I think Scott was an incredible leader for TNA. Scott really took a lot of people’s careers and skyrocketed them and gave so many people chances to work, even simply in the United States, for some of our international talent, that they would not have had, had it not been for Scott and TNA. I’m sure it’s no secret that my first night there in 2021 when I wrestled Deonna in Knockouts Knockdown, they simply decided to offer me a contract right then and there on the spot. I’m not the only person that Scott has done this with. Scott really likes to take a bet on people. With people like Josh Alexander, people like myself, people like Speedball (Mike Bailey), he’s taken risks and helped so many people’s careers,” she said. 

Masha declined to comment on D’Amore’s dismissal and the changes in TNA Wrestling. 

Masha is set to team with Killer Kelly to challenge Decay (Havok & Rosemary) for the TNA Knockouts Tag Team Titles at TNA No Surrender.
