What happened
Gisele Shaw has signed with the National Wrestling Alliance, according to multiple wrestling outlets reporting on the September 12, 2026, episode of NWA Powerrr.
NWA President Billy Corgan broke the news during the broadcast, with the promotion issuing a graphic reading “BREAKING: NWA SIGNS GISELE SHAW,” as cited by Fightful and eWrestlingNews.
What we know
Fightful and eWrestlingNews both reported that Corgan announced Shaw as the reigning “NWA World Women’s Champion” at the time of the signing.
POST Wrestling reported that Shaw had been working regularly for the NWA since late 2025 prior to putting pen to paper on the new deal.
Diva Dirt noted that Shaw is a former TNA Knockout and has also held the MLP Women’s Canadian Championship for the MLP promotion.
What is not confirmed
Sources are not in agreement on Shaw’s exact current NWA title. Fightful and eWrestlingNews described her as the NWA World Women’s Champion, while 411Mania and Diva Dirt referred to her as the NWA World Women’s Television Champion.
The specific terms, length, or exclusivity of Shaw’s new contract with the NWA have not been detailed in the available reporting.
Why it matters
Ringside News characterized the signing as giving the NWA “some stability around one of the biggest names in its women’s division,” following a period in which Shaw had reportedly already been a regular presence on NWA programming.
