WWE: 19 Professional Wrestlers with surprising MMA records that you may not know about

#13 & #12 Jessamyn Duke and Marina Shafir

Jessamyn Duke

Jessamyn Duke started off her career in the world of Mixed Martial Arts. Soon after a run in Invicta, she was included in The Ultimate Fighter 18. There she won in the Finale against Peggy Morgan. However, all of her fights that came after this saw her go on a losing streak. She was released from the UFC after three losses, and then went on to lose two more fights in Invicta.

Thankfully for her, she then went on to join the world of wrestling, and on May 7th, 2018, WWE announced that she had joined NXT with Marina Shafir.

Shafir's own MMA career was slightly worse than Duke's as after a 4-0 record in the world of amateur MMA, her only win in the professional fights was the first one, after which she lost two other fights.

In October, they interfered in the NXT Women's Championship match to help Shayna Baszler and established themselves as heels. They aligned themselves with Baszler and helped her in her title matches numerous times.

Unfortunately, in their own pro-wrestling careers, the two have not been the most successful. However, they have shown promise since starting their wrestling careers a couple of years ago. There is a lot of potential for a heel Four Horsewomen faction in the future, where they join Baszler and Ronda Rousey on the main roster, to oppose Charlotte Flair, Sasha Banks, Becky Lynch and Bayley.

Marina Shafir's record: 1-2

Jessamyn Duke's record: 3-5
