She’s filling in the gap. WWE has a lot of talented wrestlers on its roster and the company can have a hard time finding something for everyone to do. One of the easiest ways to fix the problem is to have some of the wrestlers sit on the sidelines, which can be the case for a variety of reasons. That has taken place again at the moment and now we know a bit more about what happened.

As previously reported, WWE’s Aliyah is currently injured but is expected to be back soon. In her absence, Shotzi has been helping Raquel Rodriguez, Aliyah’s normal partner. According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the substitution has been made to either have Shotzi become Rodriguez’s new partner, or to simply turn Shotzi into a babyface. Shotzi and Rodriguez have not teamed together yet and Aliyah could be back as soon as this week.

Opinion: This is something that feels like killing a few birds with one stone, as it allows Rodriguez to have a new partner while also giving Shotzi something to do. I’m not sure why WWE felt the need to downgrade her for so long but it is nice to see her getting something fresh. Now just get her tank back and we could be in for a nice resurgence, as Shotzi has all the potential you could need.

What do you think of Shotzi’s new push? How should she be used? Let us know in the comments below.
