Roderick Strong is a relatively new addition to WWE's ranks, and anyone unfamiliar with NXT and the independent scene may not know much about him. An extremely successful and well-respected performer on the indies, landing Strong's signature was a tremendous acquisition by Triple H.

Up until recently, Strong was feuding with Bobby Roode, unsuccessfully trying to pry his NXT Championship away from him before Drew McIntyre did it instead at NXT Takeover Brooklyn III. During that feud, we were introduced to Roderick's partner, Marina Shafir.

The name Marina Shafir may ring a bell to some of you, and that's because she has a fair bit of notoriety of her own. Shafir is a mixed martial artist and one of the famed Four Horsewomen of MMA. We've also seen her sitting at ringside along with Ronda Rousey during the Mae Young Classic, taking in some of Shayna Baszler's bouts.
