Io Shirai Joins Shotzi Blackheart’s WarGames Team For TakeOver, Team Shotzi Gains WarGames Advantage
Shotzi Blackheart’s team is set for TakeOver: WarGames.
In the main event of tonight’s episode of NXT, Blackheart defeated Raquel Gonzalez in a ladder match to give her team the advantage at WarGames against Candice LeRae’s team. Towards the end of the match, NXT Women’s Champion Io Shirai choked out Gonzalez as she was climbing a ladder.
Blackheart took advantage of the opportunity and eventually climbed the ladder to get the briefcase and win the match. Afterwards, all four members of Team Shotzi (Blackheart, Shirai, Ember Moon & Rhea Ripley) posed as the show went off the air.
