Former WWE star Shotzi Blackheart is among the names announced for an upcoming international GCW tour.
On May 29th, Game Changer Wrestling announced a tour of Japan set to take place from July 28- 30th. Blackheart was listed as one of the advertised names for the shows along with Drew Parker and Jimmy Lloyd.
The announcement is Blackheart’s first show since her WWE departure at the start of the month. While the former NXT Women’s Tag Team Champion has also been teased for an appearance for MLW, but this has not been made official at the time of writing.
The GCW Japan shows will be streamed live on Triller TV+
Shotzi Blackheart To Become A Free Agent Very Soon
At the beginning of May, news broke that multiple members of WWE’s main roster and NXT had been released from their contracts. During that time, it was also revealed that Blackheart’s contract would not be renewed upon expiration. Unlike the releases that had the standard non-competes attached, Blackheart is able to appear for another promotion as soon as the deal expires.
Blackheart’s final WWE match saw her lose to Zoey Stark on WWE Speed, which is broadcast on social media platform X. Shotzi’s final televised match took place in late January, which saw her unsuccessfully challenge Fallon Henley for the Women’s North American Championship on NXT.
