Previously, Malenko competed for All Japan Women’s wrestling in the early 1990s. She held AJW Championship, but she had to vacate it due to an injury that essentially ended her in-ring career. But Malenko has recently returned to professional wreslting, and now she’s getting a shot at a major opportunity. Trained by the legendary Boris Malenko, Debbie is no stranger to big moments, and she will need to harness all that she has in order to come out on top at NWA Empowerrr.
