Shayna Baszler comments on facing Masha Slamovich at Bloodsport.
Shayna Baszler comments on competing at Bloodsport X.
At the show on April 4th, Baszler would take on Masha Slamovich in a singles match that ended with Baszler stomping Masha out to earn the referee stoppage victory.
After the bout, Shayna was interviewed backstage and asked how it felt to compete at Bloodsport.
“Yeah man, I made a post about it when it came out that I was showing up here. That this is what I came up in. I think I’ve been gone a while. I think people have forgotten that this is what made me who I am. Bloodsport. Just because you didn’t know Bloodsport existed, I came up with the Warmaster, under his tutelage. This is what I came up in. So my experience tonight, was a homecoming. I know the crowd didn’t think so. Maybe they forgot too. But for sure, by the end of that night, they knew exactly where I belong.”
Baszler was then asked about Masha, with Shayna giving the TNA Knockout her props.
“You know, I’ll be honest with you. Masha put a video out talking about she wanted to be the first one to welcome me to Bloodsport, and it made me kind of laugh. Because to me, that told me she had no idea who I was. Because like I said, I’ve been here since the beginning. But what she showed me out there was that it’s not that she had no idea who I was. I’ll say this. Masha Slamovich, she knows who she herself is. And as much as I prove to everyone that I belong here, Masha proved to me she knows herself. She belongs here too.”
