Shotzi Blackheart must win the women’s Money in the Bank
Shotzi Blackheart should get the Money in the Bank briefcase to help her main roster push.
Money in the Bank is right around the corner and the field for both matches is still coming together. Every year this is an opportunity to build a new star or put someone back into the title picture, and 2022 is the same. Looking at the women’s division, that group is in need of some new talent to rise to the top. Shotzi Blackheart has her chance to claim a spot in the ladder match, and she should be the one to pick up the victory.
Shotzi and Aliyah are set for one-on-one action to determine who will take one of the last three spots in the Money in the Bank match. This is solid booking because it calls back to brief altercations the two women have had in recent months. Plus, they are two women who could use a solid bump with a big victory to get into the match. Aliyah is someone that could have long-term value to the WWE roster, and it’s a chance to showcase her a bit as well. Still, Shotzi should be the one to move forward.
Shotzi stands out compared to her peers
In professional wrestling, there’s a value in a performer that stands out among their peers. Stand Shotzi next to the rest of the women on the roster and it’s immediately clear that she breaks the mold that WWE consistently puts forward. Starting with her looks, her background, and even the recklessness that she shows in her move set helps her come off different than the others on the roster. That’s important as WWE looks for new wrestlers to build around for the long term.
Putting the briefcase in Shotzi’s hands creates several new matches for the future. She’s recently had altercations with Ronda Rousey, and her list of challengers is shockingly short. Plus, she could be a future contender for Bianca Belair as well. Viewers can also imagine her standing across from Alexa Bliss, Asuka, Liv Morgan, Lacy Evans, and more as she moves forward in becoming a member of the main roster elite.
WWE needs to take this moment and create some new stars in both the men’s and women’s divisions. Shotzi Blackheart is one of those individuals and instead of putting that briefcase in the hands of the usual suspects, it’s time to give a new woman the opportunity to run with the proverbial ball.
