An AEW regular has confirmed that they have signed with the company.
Despite debuting for All Elite Wrestling in December 2021, Marina Shafir has yet to receive the “#ALLELITE” graphic on social media.
Shafir signed with WWE in 2018 and worked in the company’s developmental brand until her release in June 2021.
Since arriving in AEW, Shafir has gradually become a prominent fixture in the promotion and aligned with Nyla Rose and Vickie Guerrero.
Speaking on The Sessions with Renee Paquette, Shafir confirmed that she has in fact signed with All Elite Wrestling.
She said:
“Before I got signed with AEW, I was doing indie shows here and there, but then the schedule just got crazy.”
“I got signed and I was like, oh fuck, I’m spending no time with my family, and I just decided not to do anything else.”
Shafir continued on to describe her approach to wrestling matches, saying:
“I took a couple here and there, but for me, pro wrestling is special, and you can do it however the fuck you want to do it. That’s what people say. There isn’t just one fucking way up the mountain. There’s multiple.”
“So for me, I need to approach whatever matches that are in my future, I want time to prepare. I want time to understand what I need to bring to the table. I like that pressure.”
As previously reported, Marina Shafir also revealed the huge WWE match that egos got in the way of.
