You can find nice things to say evāen in the Ball Pit.
Ahead of NXT Takeover: WarGames, Fightful was able to speak āto NXT star Shotzi Blackheart. Weą± asked her to say nice things about some of her friends...and foes.
Rhea Ripley, Shotzi's WarGames teammate:
"I love Rhea. Like, I love herš¦ style. I love her taste in music. I love her attitude. Yāall donāt know this, but sheās hilarious. Sheās so much fun to be around. The one time that we taggšØed together was just so much fun."
Dakota Kai, a WarGames opponent, and longtime rival:
"Dakota Kai.ļ·½ As much as she pisses me off, that girl kicks hard. She is Captain Kick. Sheās amazing. Sheās amazing in š¦©the ring. I really look up to her even though I canāt stand her."
Sasha Banks, who faced Shotzi for the tag titles in 2020:
"I had that one tag match with her and I just really want a singles. Sheās someone that Iāve looked up to since the beginning of my wrestling career. Her and Bayley were big inspirations to me."

When asked if she saw the "match" between Sashaš¦ āØand her dog, Shotzi glowed,.
"Yes! Ohź¦, my goodness. As soon I was done watching tź§hat, I grabbed my dog and I was like, āWeāre gonna wrestle! Letās go!ā The psychology was really great in that match."
Robert Stone, who Shotzi ran over with a tank multiple times:
"He really, really does [make a great sound when you run over him with a tank]. You know what? His suits arenāt thašt bad either. Heš has a different one day I see him. Iām gonna guess that he buys them (instead of renting them)."
The pleasantries are going to be in short order this weekend, as Shotzi Blackheart leads the charge inside the WarGames cage.
