10 Wrestlers Who Have Had Enough Of WWE's Sh*t
4. Shotzi & Nox
Tegan Nox and Shotzi Blackheart are talented, charismatic, and likeable performers with tremendous upside, but their tag run has been an absolute mess from the start.
Nox returned to NXT after 10 months on the shelf on 6 July, confronting Candice LeRae to seemingly enter a storyline with the person WWE painted responsible for the real ACL tear that sidelined her. Three days later, WWE said "screw all that" (likely as a consequence of LeRae's pregnancy) and put her on SmackDown instead, forging the thrown-together Shotzi and Nox pairing with Blackheart.
Making it worse is that Shotzi already had an established NXT tag partner in Ember Moon, with whom she once held the developmental tag belts. Ember suddenly became a lost singles act, split from an ally she had great chemistry with, with Tegan's NXT comeback was rendered pointless.
Shotzi and Nox won their first Women's Tag Team Title contendership match against Natalya and Tamina on 16 July but received no title shot, even when Nattie returned from injury a few weeks later. Then, on 20 August, the faces won another contenders match.
Still no title shot. Now, Tamina and Nattie aren't even champions, having dropped the belts to Rhea Ripley and Nikki A.S.H., who actually received their Championship Opportunity™ after their own contendership match.
A mess.
