Shotzi says she’s going to miss the next six weeks after suffering a broken hand. 

WWE revealed in a digital exclusive on Friday that Shotzi had been attacked in a parking lot and had her hand slammed in a car door by Shayna Baszler and Ronda Rousey. Shotzi had originally been scheduled to face Baszler in singles action on SmackDown before the attack. 

The 30-year-old posted an X-Ray of a broken hand on Saturday along with the caption, “6weeks.”

As a result of Shotzi vs. Baszler being canceled, Baszler & Rousey would team up to take on Liv Morgan and Tegan Nox on SmackDown. Morgan and Nox picked up the victory after Nox delivered a shining wizard to Baszler. 

Shotzi is coming off a loss to Rousey at WWE Survivor Series. Rousey noted on a video game stream last week that the match had to be cut for time. 

“I guess the match before us went over by like six minutes and they were really concerned about going over on time and the match after us was a three-way so they wouldn’t be able to communicate with each other to be able to make the match shorter,” Rousey said. The match after that was WarGames, they couldn’t cut that out so it was the only place where they could get that time back. So, I was kind of bummed though because we worked on that match for two weeks and we were really excited about it and I feel like I really kind of failed Shotzi. I really wanted to showcase her s**t and make all of her s**t look great and show everybody how great she is.”
