Its officialNatalya and Masha Slamovich are set to collide at Josh Barnetts Bloodsport XIV on August 2 in Rutherford, NJ, during WWE SummerSlam weekend. And this one got personal fast.
What started as a respectful post by Natalya turned into a full-blown online clash. So grateful for the women I compete with Thank you so much for helping us feel seen and heard, Nattie wrote following WWE Evolution. But Masha wasnt here for the sentiment.
But are you grateful for the women out there waiting to beat you? Slamovich fired back, making it clear she wanted a fight.
Natalya didnt back down. Big tough woman calling out someone you THINK cant get a match between us sanctioned. Let me make a call, and Ill see you soon, she responded.
Thats when Josh Barnett himself stepped in and pushed things toward Bloodsport: I see theres plenty of animosity building up here but I dont understand how there isnt somewhere that exist for you two to spill some blood.
Natalya laid it down. Then make it official at Bloodsport on August 2 and watch me run circles around Masha Watch Nattie destroy her.
Slamovich clapped back with, The only thing more dangerous than ignorance is arrogance Too bad now Ive got to make you eat your words.
Barnett then sealed the deal: Lets see who gets first blood Aug 2nd.
This match marks Natalyas return to the Bloodsport ring with a 20 record, while Masha enters at 33. With legitimate tension between these two and no ropes to hide behind, this is shaping up to be one of the most intense Bloodsport showdowns yet.
