TNA Expecting To Sign Shotzi Blackheart

TNA Wrestling held their post-Bound for Glory tapings of Thursday Night IMPACT on Tuesday, October 13, in Dothan, Alabama, and the tapings featured the return of Shotzi Blackheart to the promotion, with Shotzi aligning with Allie (FKA The Bunny).

Fightful Select's Sean Ross Sapp has reported that TNA expect to sign Shotzi following her return to the organisation. Shotzi previously wrestled for TNA (then IMPACT Wrestling) on four occasions between June 2018 and October 2019.

Blackheart had been signed with Major League Wrestling on a six-month deal, Fightful noted, but that deal expired on October 5. Shotzi looks set to continue appearing in MLW, however, as she has committed to 2027 dates with the company and MLW have creative plans for her, with the two sides remaining on good terms.

Shotzi was previously a part of WWE from November 2019 until she announced in May 2025 that her contract was being allowed to expire. She competed on NXT until 2021, when she moved to the main roster. Blackheart then moved back to NXT in December 2024.

Shotzi has had over 100 matches since her WWE departure. Beyond MLW, where she reigned as MLW Women's World Featherweight Champion for much of 2026, Blackheart has wrestled for the likes of GCW, House of Glory, Maple Leaf Pro, and PROGRESS.
