@kunalsummerQuestions popped up about whether Masha Slamovich was slotted into whatever the original plans were for Tessa Blanchard, who was originally announced as debuting over the weekend before that appearance was pulled (likely by CMLL, who Blanchard is signed to). But based on when Slamovich was signed, it appears that the Blanchard situation was completely independent and whatever was planned for Tessa was instead used for Masha instead. Reports indicate the signing occurred in early July, so the timing suggests the Blanchard situation was separate. MLW did not respond to previous PWInsider queries.
