Natalya Discusses WWE’s Stacked Women’s Division And Staying Relevant

WWE veteran Natalya appeared on The Ariel Helwani Show to discuss several topics, including the company’s current women’s division.

Natalya said, “Thank you, but I just try to wake up with not having that sense of entitlement…I’m so proud of my family, but for me, I never feel like I’m owed anything. I always want to earn my spot. The women’s division in WWE has never been this strong ever. It has never been so competitive. When I look at the women in NXT and I look at the women on Raw and I look at the women on SmackDown, I’m like, as a whole, collectively, this is the strongest that it’s ever been.”

On how she has to step outside of WWE to work her way back in:

“The thing is though, I don’t rest on all the things that I’ve done. I don’t go, ‘Wow, I did this or I have this, or I did that, or I had this match.’ I’ve had some incredible matches. But I never just rely on great matches or things that I’ve done in the past. For me, I think you’ve got to earn your spot. So in all seriousness, I feel like I need to step outside of WWE to work my way back in.”
