Shotzi has updated fans on her knee injury that took place during her NXT Women’s Title match which was taped last week. The match airs tonight.
Per Shotzi –
I tore my ACL which means I will be out of action for about 9 months. Thank you to everyone who has checked up on me. I am so sorry if I haven’t responded. I am just extremely devastated and angry. Some of you know, I have been through a lot the last few years and it has been so hard to keep up with what I think is expected of me and honestly my mental health had been at an all time low. But l’ve pushed through and I was feeling motivated and like myself again. I was hoping to go to NXT to prove myself again, earn some respect, build back my confidence and start putting the heartache from the past 2 years behind me. I feel defeated right now but I’m simultaneously feeling the most motivated I have ever been. I have been through way worse. I’ve watched my sister, who is fighting cancer, fight tougher battles. I’m just taking this as a sign to slow down. I didn’t take time off when both my stepdad and my dad passed and that really affected me. Now I am looking forward to coming back not just physically stronger, but mentally also.
The match was still being advertised to air tonight as of last night’s Raw. Shotzi also missed out on her Elimination Chamber qualifying match and was replaced by Alba Fyre. She was originally set to face Tiffany Stratton. Stratton would go on to defeat Zelina Vega while Naomi defeated Fyre.
