One of the surprising entries into RAW Underground this past week on WWE TV was that of Shayna Baszler - who dominated in a setting that she was always going to thrive in.

On the latest episode of Dropkick DiSKussions, Tom Colohue revealed that Shayna Baszler has been 'in and out' of WWE's plans constantly, but Shane McMahon is a big fan of Shayna Baszler and pushed for her to be on RAW Underground:

But what I will say is that Shane McMahon is actually a very big fan of Baszler. So he saw a chance to use her, and I thought in that particular environment, he used her very well."

We hope this is true because it's good for a McMahon to push for Shayna Baszler in WWE. She hasn't gotten off to the best start, but things can still change in time. It's not often that we see a woman in WWE getting pushed to the top instantly.
