Marina Shafir To Defend DEFY Women’s Championship against Nina Samuels & Kanji in PROGRESS Wrestling debut
PROGRESS Wrestling has just announced a blockbuster match for Chapter 171: History Is Written By The Victors, as Marina Shafir, fresh off causing chaos alongside Jon Moxley on AEW TV, will defend her DEFY Women’s Championship in a triple threat match. Shafir’s challengers include two competitors with a personal rivalry —Nina Samuels and Kanji.
Marina Shafir, known for her unique grappling style and destructive alliances in AEW, has been making waves both on AEW TV and on the independent circuit. As the reigning DEFY Women’s Champion, she has proven to be a dominant force, but this title defence at the Electric Ballroom could prove her toughest yet on her UK debut.
The match features two wrestlers with deep-seated issues. Nina Samuels, who has publicly claimed responsibility for Kanji’s career success, has made it clear that she won’t stop until Kanji is humbled for the “disrespect” shown to her. On the other hand, Kanji has dismissed Nina’s claims, asserting her independence and success in the ring, fuelling the tension between the two.
This clash between three of the best on the independent scene with combustible elements throughout now has the added complication of Shafir’s championship on the line. This high-stakes triple threat brings together the technical and brutal prowess of Shafir, the calculated cunning of Samuels, and the tenacious spirit of Kanji, making it one of the most anticipated matches of the night.
Chapter 171: History Is Written By The Victors will take place at the Electric Ballroom in Camden, London, on Sunday, September 22nd. Tickets are available now, and this event is shaping up to be one of the most exciting nights in British wrestling this year.
PROGRESS Wrestling tickets are available for all future shows via the dice app including HISTORY IS WRITTEN BY THE VICTORS where we will see the PROGRESS debut of Marina Shafir.
