Shayna Baszler 'Universally Beloved' Within WWE

Shayna Baszler’s main roster WWE career hasn’t been anywhere near as dominant as her gold laden run in NXT, but the ‘Queen of Spades’ is held in very high regard within the company.

During a Q&A session on Fightful Select, a question was asked as to Baszler’s standing within the company due to the ‘horsewoman’s lack of singles push for several years, to which Sean Ross Sapp remarked that Baszler is ‘universally loved and respected’, and is said to be very easy to work with.

Baszler has been part of WWE since 2017 and currently wrestles as part of the Pure Fusion Collective with Sonya Deville and Zoey Stark. In WWE she is a two-time NXT Women’s Champion - with the most days logged as champ in the title’s history - and a three-time WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion, enjoying two reigns with Nia Jax, and one with fellow ‘horsewoman’ Ronda Rousey.

Shayna’s last singles match came on the October 21 edition of Main Event, with a win over Maxxine Dupri. Baszler’s last singles WWE main roster PLE appearance came at SummerSlam 2023, with an MMA rules victory over Rousey.
