Legend was quick to point to Teaira McCowan, a player currently playing for Fenerbah\u00e7e of the EuroLeague Women and Turkish Super League, and who previously played for the Dallas Wings from 2022-25.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe played at Mississippi State, and she\u2019s just a stallion, and I feel like everybody would be scared of her,\u201d said Legend. \u201cAnd she\u2019s for real strong, she\u2019s not no lanky center, she would come in here and really dominate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Prior to her time in WWE, Legend was an accomplished basketball player. She played college basketball at both Texas A&amp;M and Mississippi State, the latter of which saw her earn first-team All-SEC honors. In 2019, Legend (real name Anriel Howard) was drafted 24th in the WNBA Draft, and played for the Seattle Storm briefly.<\/p>\n<p>Now, she and Nia Jax reign as WWE Women\u2019s Tag Team Champions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ MORE: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aol.com\/entertainment\/current-plans-wwe-wrestlemania-42-182313323.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Current Plans For WWE WrestleMania 42\u2019s Women\u2019s Tag Title Match \u2014 Report;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp\">Current Plans For WWE WrestleMania 42\u2019s Women\u2019s Tag Title Match \u2014 Report<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wrestlezone.com\/news\/1628007-lash-legend-wants-to-recruit-67-wnba-star-to-wwe\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Lash Legend Wants to Recruit 6\u20197\u2033 WNBA Star to WWE;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp\">Lash Legend Wants to Recruit 6\u20197\u2033 WNBA Star to WWE<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wrestlezone.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Wrestlezone;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp\">Wrestlezone<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Thu, March 26, 2026 at 1:10 AM UTC Photo Credit: WWE Before she was successful in the wrestling&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":682714,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[49],"tags":[2470,286802,11012,1494,62,67,132,68,232,286842],"class_list":{"0":"post-682713","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-wnba","8":"tag-dallas-wings","9":"tag-lash-legend","10":"tag-mississippi-state","11":"tag-seattle-storm","12":"tag-sports","13":"tag-united-states","14":"tag-unitedstates","15":"tag-us","16":"tag-wnba","17":"tag-wwe-women"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/116294489862054808","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/682713","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=682713"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/682713\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/682714"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=682713"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=682713"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=682713"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
