Mariya Stadnik, the legendary former wrestler of Azerbaijan's national team, has announced her new professional venture after retiring from competitive sports.
In an exclusive interview with Idman.biz, Stadnik shared her decision to move on from her wrestling career and take on a new role within the Azerbaijan Wrestling Federation.

I’ve decided to step away from active competition, but I will continue to support the sport as the Women’s Wrestling Coordinator for the Azerbaijan Wrestling Federation. I am committed to doing everything I can for the growth of women’s wrestling in our country. I haven’t left wrestling, and I never will."
