Ember Moon Reflects On Winning The NXT Women’s Tag Titles, Says She Considered Retirement Last Year
Ember Moon reflects on making history.
On the most recent episode of NXT, WWE introduced Women’s Tag Team Championships onto the brand. First being held by Dakota Kai and Raquel Gonzales, they would lose the belts later in the night to Shotzi Blackheart and Ember Moon.
Moon would take to Instagram after taking a few days to let the moment sink and to share her thoughts about making history. In her post, she commented on her closeness with Shotzi Blackheart and how honored she is to hold these titles. Moon even says a year ago, she contemplated retirement.
It’s taken me a few days to process this. Last year around this time I was thinking I would never enter ring again and was considering retiring. And now I can call myself champion again. 2 years 11months since the last time I held gold. And I am doing it with someone I truly consider a sister, @shotziblackheart . She has been there to lift me up , to make me laugh, have my back, and even hold me back when I was wrong. Shotzi makes me want to be soo much better as a person and a performer. We are 2 peas in a smoke filled tank. I love ya ttp. For the first time in a long time I am having fun and my passion has been reignited on entirely different level. Thank you @tripleh! This is only the beginning… and I am soo thankful to be HOME at NXT!
