In this interview Shotzi Blackheart talks about returning to indie wrestling after leaving WWE: “I didn’t know what I was getting myself into when I was coming back to the independents because I hadn’t been in the indies since 2019. I just didn’t know if anyone was going to vibe with me. I also hadn’t been on TV for the past year-and-a-half because I tore my ACL before getting released, and then wasn’t on TV very much. I just thought nobody would be rooting for me. To come back and just be killing it and having so much fun, and to do it way more, I’d imagine doing only a few months back on the indies is pretty wild.”

Shinsuke Nakamura says he’s not retiring soon: “Fortunately, I haven’t had many injuries so it’s not right away, but there’s no such thing as forever. If you ask me about the next 10 years, I have my doubts, but if you ask me about five years, maybe. You never know what tomorrow will bring, so I think the only thing I can do is do what I can now.”
