Blackheart said everything worked out perfectly.
In December 2023, Shotzi Blackheart and her husband got married in Las Vegas, Nevada. On their wedding day, Blackheart competed at a WWE house show in her wedding dress with her husband in attendance.
She teamed up with Bianca Belair to defeat Bayley and IYO SKY. While speaking to Ariel Helwani, Blackheart shared that it was her idea to have a match on her wedding day.
“So, I actually pitched that to Road Dogg (wrestling after my wedding)... Yeah, I got married at the Little White Wedding Chapel and then rushed on over and wrestled Bayley. With the wedding dress (she laughed). I ripped off the wig and everything but yeah, it was a good time.
We planned it maybe like a few weeks before. I got booked on that live event and I told my husband, I was like, ‘What if we just stopped planning the wedding and we just eloped?’ Not super deep (into wedding plans). We had talks about what we wanted to do. We wanted to do this big Halloween wedding and I was just like, ‘You know what? Screw all this stressful stuff. Let’s just get married and just be us’ and it was the best idea ever. I’m so happy that we did that. It was just no stress. We just did it. Got a really awesome room at The Cosmopolitan and just had some fun that night with everyone that was on the show. Yeah, so all the wrestlers came out and partied with us at a karaoke bar and it was the greatest time ever.”
Fast forward to present day and Blackheart is no longer with the company. Her contract was not renewed. She shared her thoughts about that and those comments can be found at this link.
