Ember Moon Reveals She Almost Retired Last Year
During last Tuesday's NXT episode, Shotzi Blackheart and Ember Moon defeated Dakota Kai and Raquel Gonzalez to become the NXT Women's Tag Team Champions.
A few days ago, Ember Moon took to Instagram to reveal that last year around this time she was considering retiring from the ring.
Moon posted, "It's taken me a few days to process this. Last year around this time I was thinking I would never enter ring again and was considering retiring. And now I can call myself champion again. 2 years 11months since the last time I held gold. And I am doing it with someone I truly consider a sister, @shotziblackheart . She has been there to lift me up , to make me laugh, have my back, and even hold me back when I was wrong. Shotzi makes me want to be soo much better as a person and a performer. We are 2 peas in a smoke filled tank. I love ya ttp. For the first time in a long time I am having fun and my passion has been reignited on entirely different level. Thank you @tripleh! This is only the beginning... and I am soo thankful to be HOME at NXT!"
It was in September 2019 when she tore her Achilles tendon during a WWE 24/7 Title chase segment. Ember Moon wouldn't make her return until WWE NXT at TakeOver 31 on October 4, 2020.
