Nikki Blackheart has been gaining attention as one of the independent wrestling scene’s most promising talents. Recently, she took part in a WWE NXT episode and completed a try-out at WWE’s Performance Center. Last year, she trained at LODESTONE, a renowned training camp where top WWE superstars including Bayley and Charlotte Flair also honed their skills.

“Well, I bled my eyes out this morning because I’m so grateful. And I was like, you know what? Shake it off. I’m good. Show up here. And then John Cena walks in a week before his retirement. I’m like, what is my life? I don’t know. But I got to go talk to him now. So, I’ll see you guys.”
