Edit: EXTENDED PROMO ON YOUTUBE
That promo was fire though!
Hopefully she can get a title run with this new character.

The issue with Shotzi is the fact that when it comes to workrate she is... and has, proven to not be that great
Idk if that can change or if this character can catch fire, but hopefully this goes better than Deeb shaving her head did...

I love that they FINALLY are letting Shotzi tap into her own personality.
The only question is what does it do for her in the long run...she is not gonna be winning the title or even really be in contention so after Bayley whats the plan?.
Only thing that springs to mind maybe have the Ginger Cleavage Witches try and play with her head and try to controll her...and maybe have someone like Zelina try and befriend her and parlay that into a tag feud because she aint touching the top tier women on SD.

You should probably look into *why* she shaved her head. Hint: Not just for character change

Hint: Not just for character change I saw why, it's awesome I just said I hope it can lead to something for her in doing it, a spark she needed, but it feels like she always hits a ceiling booking wise

Awesome shit. I wanted to do that for my mother when she was going through cancer (that eventually took her life a few years ago), but she insisted I didn’t because she thought I’d look worse bald than she did.

So they uploaded the original promo without the crowd and extended version.
Damn it's FIRE!
She really hasn't shown PASSION and FIRE like this on the main roster thus far. As she was more of a comedy face or loser heel character.
She might have finally found her groove here and I'm ALL FOR IT!
HOORAY!!!

the real reason out of kayfabe for why she shaved the hair is quite heartwarming.

Love it. The reason, the fact she's switching her character up, this is only a positive for her so I approve.

I like how in wrestling getting a forced haircut makes you go crazy. Happened with Daffney and Rosemary.
Also shaving her head to be "in control" is a power move. I respect it.

There's only one Ginger that can control Shotzi, and neither of the witches are Brandi Lauren.

All kidding aside, she's been through a lot recently with her dads dying and sister being diagnosed with cancer. I just root for her so much, even with all of her flaws!

She had a lot of rough stuff happen to her in her life. Her interview with Lilian Garcia shows how she had a very sad childhood/teenage years.

I like Shotzi. I'll miss the green for the time being, but hopefully a change of pace will do her good and get her out of the funk she's been in.
Like, do I think Shotzi's in the top 10 of women they have in the ring? No. Top 20? Even that's maybe pushing it. But, she does definitely have more going on in terms of personality than many of them. Just... remains to be seen if she can make it click like Liv did after ages of floating aimlessly.

Charisma and personality can get you a lot of the way to covering your in-ring deficiencies, as long as you aren’t out-and-out dangerous to yourself and/or others. Shotzi just hasn’t quite eliminated those flaws once and for all yet, but everything else is there for her.

All this also reminds me of how close we were to (probably) having Sonya Deville being this unhinged bald woman, if not for that home invasion that took her out of the rotation for months.

I love Shotzi and she has potential as she is so fun and so cool and different in style and personality. This looks intresting though i hope she isnt a crazy girl heel type whenever she is seen next time,theres not enough faces as it is and the crazy girl stick has been done to death,heck even Nikki is back to doing that routine,so i hope we see something different here.
