In a rare crossover opportunity for talent, WWE is letting several wrestlers work Josh Barnett’s Bloodsport X event next month, with Shayna Baszler being the first to be announced.
Josh Barnett and Game Changer Wrestling announced the news today. Her opponent wasn’t mentioned. The announcement read as the following:
“What does it mean when a Queen takes up the sword and marches to war? Blood. Victory. Glory. From battlefields all over the world – MMA & the @ufc , @WWENXT , @WWE , @wwr_stardom , and more – to now step into a ring she was made for from the beginning. The Warmaster’s disciple, “The Queen of Spades” Shayna Baszler, comes to Josh Barnett’s: Bloodsport X.”
The event is a hybrid show that mixes wrestling and MMA with no ropes. It sees bouts end only by knockout, submission, or referee stoppage. Baszler is a former UFC star herself, and she holds a pro-MMA record of 15-11.
More WWE stars will be announced soon.
