12. Masha Slamovich 26yo TNA
It is hard to believe that Masha is just 26 years old. The Russian-born TNA Knockout has been wrestling for a decade, starting at the age of 16. She started her career in Japan under the intimidating name of Skinripper.
Since she has been old enough to do so, Slamovich has been a mainstay in the indie scene, and even today as a TNA Knockout she still reigns supreme in the indies. She has done work in Japan, Canada, Germany, Mexico, and the United States. Her biggest work is with the GCW promotion based out of New Jersey.
In 2019 she made her first appearance in TNA, then-IMPACT Wrestling, and would return in 2021 in a match against Deonna Purrazzo. Her match against Purrazzo impressed then-TNA official Gail Kim, who offered her a contract in front of the crowd. After being built up as an unstoppable force in TNA, Slamovich spent her time from 2021 through 2023 chasing singles gold. She wasn’t able to capture the gold at that time against champion’s Deonna Purrazzo, Jordynne Grace, and Gail Kim.
Slamovich would then shift to the tag team division and become a two-time Knockouts World Tag Team Champion with Killer Kelly, known together as MK Ultra. She would continue working in a tag team after Kelly took a step away from the promotion with Alisha Edwards. Known as Malisha, the team won the titles, making Slamovich a three-time tag team champion and earning Alisha her first title in her TNA career.
Finally, for Slamovich, she won the TNA Knockouts World Title from Grace at Bound for Glory in October 2024. She is the current reigning champion and set to face Tessa Blanchard at Rebellion at the end of this month. She has successfully defended the title against names such as Savannah Evans, Tasha Steelz, Rosemary, Lei Ying Lee, Alisha Edwards, and NXT’s Cora Jade.
Slamovich’s character and presentation certainly snowplows her to the top, and she can truly do so much more at such a young age.
