Shotzi Blackheart Reveals Recent Injury Left Her Struggling To Get Out Of Bed

SmackDown wrestler Shotzi Blackheart wrestled her first match in almost a month this past Friday, losing to Sasha Banks in just over two minutes. While her absence was assumed to be because WWE didn’t have anything creatively for her, it turned out it was due to her being injured. Blackheart would reveal this herself while speaking to the Mondragon Chiropractic YouTube channel, explaining that her lower back was in a great deal of pain, rating it a ten and saying she couldn’t even get out of bed in the morning.

I actually got x-rays on it. It’s nothing crazy, but they said that my pelvic bone is tilted forward. They’ve been giving me rehab exercises and stuff. I’m way better than a month ago, for sure.Shotzi Blackheart
Ten. It was pretty bad. I had a match, and then I woke up the next morning, and it was really hard for me to get up. I slid off the bed onto the floor, and I couldn’t even put pressure onto my knees or crawl. I’ve been off for a little bit.Shotzi Blackheart

Seeing that Blackheart is now taking bumps again, it would seem things have improved considerably for her, which is great to see. However, given the disregard she has shown her own body and general recklessness in the ring, an injury like this was always likely to happen. Perhaps this will now be a wake-up call to her, as being just 30 and recently called SmackDown, she should have a long and successful career if she can stay fit.
