Marina Shafir Talks Moxley, Rousey, and The Four Horsewomen of NXT

Marina Shafir shares the story behind the Death Riders, and how she came to be not only part of Jon Moxley’s faction, but also his sole protector! She talks about the valuable lessons she’s learned from Mox, Norman Smiley, her real-life husband, Roderick Strong, and her best friend, Ronda Rousey. She tells her WWE/NXT story including how The Four Horsewomen of the MMA ended up together at NXT, and why the group and gimmick ultimately fizzled out before it really had a chance to get going. Marina discusses the trailblazing ground that Ronda Rousey set for women in the MMA, how much it’s changed since her own fighting days, and why she left the sport after only 3 professional fights. Marina also talks about motherhood, parenting, and her daily struggle to balance family and career.
