Masha Slamovich is pulled from several shows following domestic violence accusations

Masha Slamovich has been involved in a strong controversy after her ex-partner, AKIRA, accused her of domestic violence. Within hours, several independent promoters announced that the wrestler would be removed from their upcoming events while the case generates attention and debate in the locker room.

Prestige Wrestling was the first to communicate that Slamovich will not compete in Roseland XII. The company stated that they will provide updates later on, but confirmed that the show will go on as scheduled on October 5th in Portland, Oregon. Shortly after, West Coast Pro informed that Masha will also not participate in How The West Was Won, thanking fans for their support and promising news in the coming days.

Masha Slamovich will not be competing in our next event. We will share more information soon. Thank you for the support; see you on 5/10 in Portland.

Removing from posters does not confirm facts, but it does reflect the usual protocol in the independent scene: faced with serious accusations and high public exposure, promoters prioritize the continuity of their shows and the protection of their brand until there is clarity.

As reported by The Takedown (Sports Illustrated), TNA stated that they "take very seriously" any such allegations and have already initiated an internal investigation. The issue has escalated beyond the indie circuit and enters the realm of corporate decisions, where reputational control weighs as much as performance in the ring.

The controversy erupted after the dissemination of private messages in which accusations were exchanged following the breakup between Masha and AKIRA. While there are no legal or disciplinary conclusions yet, the professional impact is immediate: cancellations, contractual uncertainty, and a public spotlight that may influence future bookings.

In recent wrestling cases, companies have opted for precautionary measures such as removing talent from posters, opening investigations, or reviewing internal policies to gain time and assess information. Although each situation is different, the pattern underscores a key point: early management of reputational risks can make the difference between a controlled crisis and a snowball effect that affects sponsors, audiences, and entire locker rooms.
