During her time in WWE, Shotzi would often make her entrance in a mini tank, that might double as a weapon depending on who was in her way.
Speaking to Chris Van Vliet on Insight, Shotzi discussed the origins of the tank.
"So I found this Mini Tank at Walmart, and I bought it for the Indies. I used it only on a couple of shows, because obviously I can't travel with that tank, I don't have the buses that WWE does. So for local shows, I would come out in the tank. There were actually some indie promotions that were like, we bought one for our show, and they would bring me in, and I'd have a little tank there, but I sent Hunter a video of my little mini Walmart tank, and he was like, ‘Can you get it to Full Sail tomorrow?’ And I was like, Oh, yes. And I ordered an Uber XL to get this Mini Tank over to Full Sail," she said.
Asked if the tank would make an appearance on the independent scene, Shotzi replied, "I'm still trying to get that tank back. Because Okay, so my little tank, they actually cut in half to make the bigger tank that you see on TV. So half of that is mine, which is the point that I made. I was like, 'Can I have half of the tank, or maybe all of it?' So, I mean, I'm willing to drive to Connecticut and get it out of the warehouse, if I have to."
Shotzi has returned to the independent scene since her WWE departure, once again using the Shotzi Blackheart name.
