[
It’s confirmed—Natalia and Masha Suramovich are set to face off at Josh Burnett’s Bloodsport XIV during WWE Summer Slam weekend in Rutherford, New Jersey, scheduled for August 2nd. Personally, I can’t wait for this matchup.
What started as a respectful message from Natalia has escalated into a fierce online rivalry. “I’m thankful for the women I’m competing alongside…thank you for making us feel seen and heard,” Nattie shared following WWE Evolution. Masha, however, wasn’t swayed by the sentiment.
“But are you really grateful for the woman who’s ready to take you down?” Suramovich countered, making it clear she is seeking a fight.
Natalia responded firmly: “A tough woman like you calling someone to question their readiness for a match between us? Let’s arrange a meeting soon.”
At that point, Josh Burnett intervened, directing the focus toward Bloodsport. “There’s a lot of animosity here, but I don’t see a venue where you both can settle this—until now.”
Natalia took the challenge: “Then let’s make it official on August 2nd at Bloodsport and watch me handle Masha.”
Suramovich retorted, “Arrogance is more dangerous than ignorance. Sorry, but now I must make you eat your words.”
Burnett wrapped it up, saying, “Let’s see who spills blood first on August 2nd.”
This match is significant as Natalia enters the Bloodsport ring with a 2–0 record, while Masha has a mixed 3–3 record. With genuine tension between them and no rings to hide behind, this matchup promises to be one of the most intense confrontations in Bloodsport history.
Fan Take: This news is a big deal for wrestling fans as it showcases a raw, unscripted rivalry that could redefine the limits of women’s wrestling. The intensity and palpable animosity between Natalia and Masha might set a new standard for upcoming matches, sparking greater interest and excitement in the sport.
