— In a move that many expected was imminent, Shayna Baszler has officially signed a contract with WWE – this after making it to the finals of the recently completed Mae Young Classic tournament where she lost to Kairi Sane.
— The 37-year old former MMA fighter was strongly rumored to be signing with WWE as she had stopped accepting any indie bookings and was portrayed in the tournament as a star. Not to mention with WWE planning to incorporate her into a Horsewomen storyline, they would have had to get her contract to move forward with that.
