Shotzi Blackheart fires back at WWE star Matt Cardona's comment about who the 'Indy God' is in pro wrestling

Shotzi Blackheart talks to Fox News Digital about who the real "Indy God" is after WWE star's Matt Cardona's remarks.

The title of "Indy God’ on the pro wrestling scene outside of the major companies is a title that has been taken seriously since Matt Cardona was winning belts across smaller promotions.

Cardona took that title to heart as he reinvented himself following his release from WWE in 2020. He dominated the indies, winning multiple championships in companies like Game Changer Wrestling, House of Glory, Juggalo Championship Wrestling, World Series Wrestling and others. But when he re-joined WWE in 2025, the "Indy God" title, presumably, had to be passed down.

He told Fox News Digital previously that he didn’t think anyone, right now, was the so-called "Indy God" but named pro wrestling stars like Shotzi Blackheart, Richard Holliday and Ben Bishop as wrestlers who have emerged as some of the top wrestlers on the scene. When mentioned of those comments, Shotzi believed that Cardona knew she was the "Indy God" now.

"I think he knows that I am. Like, come on," she told Fox News Digital. "Like, I know that he was signed by the time the polls came out for the independent wrestler of the year, PWI's independent wrestler of the year. But I beat him by a lot. By a lot. So, yeah, I think like the fans know it. I've beaten him in the ring. I beat him in the magazine.
