Marina Shafir is done letting the wrestling world rewrite history. On Rulebreakers with Saraya, she made it clear that she and her crew coined the name Four Horsewomen before anyone in WWE ever ran with it.
Toward the middle of the conversation, Saraya recalled the first time she met Marina backstage at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. She described seeing Shafir alongside Ronda Rousey, Shayna Baszler, and Jessamyn Duke, a group she said immediately gave off John Wick energy and owned the room the second they walked in. Thats when the topic of their iconic nickname came up.
Marina confirmed that the label didnt come from WWE or any wrestling storylineit was theirs from the MMA world.
Saraya doubled down, admitting: I heard it from you guys first. Exactly. I did. I really did. Marina added:
Saraya even recalled taking a photo with the group that day and called them the coolest [expletive] women that ever walked backstage at WWE.
The moment turned playful, but the message wasnt lostMarina and her squad werent following a wrestling gimmick. They were the original Four Horsewomen, and they wore that name proudly long before it made its into WWE circles.
For those who need the breakdown: the MMA Four Horsewomen were Marina Shafir, Ronda Rousey, Shayna Baszler, and Jessamyn Duke. The WWE Four Horsewomen a completely different group were Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch, Sasha Banks (now known as Mercedes Mon), and Bayley.
