Natalya is going to get her shot ag the WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship this Monday, Aug. 18, on Raw. Will we finally get to see Nattie Neidhart instead?
For months now, Natalya has been using her alter ego, Nattie Neidhart outside of the WWE. Over the weekend she wrestled at TripleMania for AAA. She faced Faby Apache and the still champion Flammer for the Reina de Reinas Championship. Now, she is going to face Lynch for the IC Title.
Lynch defeated Maxxine Dupri last week to retain the title. This came after “bullying” and having an altercation with Nikki Bella the week before. Lynch dropped Natalya as she was checking on Dupri after the match.
Natalya has not held a singles title in WWE in eight years. She defeated Naomi in 2017 for the SmackDown Women’s Title. Since then, she did win the Women’s Tag Team Titles with Tamina in 2021.
