Downs...

6. Shotzi?

Shotzi seemed to be in line for a mega-push a while back, but she's stalled horribly. The former NXT star got the jobber treatment on SmackDown - WWE didn't give her a proper entrance, and she was totally squashed by Sasha Banks. Things aren't going well then?

No, no they're not.

One of the oddest things about this is that WWE resisted the temptation to book a squash elsewhere in the women's division even though that would've fit. So, sadly, Shotzi was made to look like a total afterthought before Banks moved on to her real reason for even showing up on Smackers.

The one-time Blackheart must be really worried about where she's going on the main roster. Losing to Sasha is no disgrace, but barely being featured or getting a lick in before staring at the lights isn't exactly promising. It'd be fun to find out what Shotzi really thinks of her current situation.
