Former WWE star Lei Ying Lee (also known as Xia Zhao) is scheduled to compete in her first professional MMA fight later this month. Lee will face Myriam Essalki at Combat Night MMA on Saturday, May 17th, in Jacksonville, Florida. This match will mark the professional MMA debuts for both fighters.
Lee, who is currently signed with TNA Wrestling, was initially set to fight Xiomara Lee in July 2024 for Combat Night, but that matchup never took place.
The announcement stated, “Get your popcorn ready for @thexiazhao vs @myriameessalki in Jacksonville! Expect both fighters to meet in the center of the ring and throw down! Tickets are ON SALE at the link in bio. DM to reserve one of the last 3 VIP tables.”
