Wrestling is a sport that is very unpredictable, one minute a superstar can be having the best match of their career and the next their career could be over after one bad bump. This means that a lot of athletes take care of their bodies both inside and outside of the ring to ensure that they have some longevity in their career.
As a former Mixed Martial Artist, Baszler obviously knows how to ensure that she is safe in the ring and knows how to look after her own body, but if she isn't it's interesting to note that The Queen of Spades is also a certified Emergency Medical Technician (EMT).
This means that Baszler is able to access any injury that she suffers at a higher level than many of the current WWE roster. This also means that if Baszler's career comes to an end suddenly, then she has a backup career already waiting for her, which shows just how smart the Submission Magician is both inside and outside of the ring.
