Natalya is the daughter of Jim ‘the Anvil’ Neidhart and a member of the legendary Hart wrestling family which includes Bret ‘Hitman’ Hart, among others. The Hart family is known for their technical prowess inside the ring.

Over the years, Natalya has been a steady source of solid technical wrestling in a WWE women’s division that hasn’t always been known for it. Despite her credentials, WWE gave her arguably one of the most humiliating gimmicks ever given to a talent of her caliber.

In 2012, Natalya was part of a successful tag team with Beth Phoenix called The Divas of Doom. They had been a focal point in WWE storylines for about five months when all of a sudden she started to have an on-air flatulence problem. The gimmick was unpopular with fans, critics, and members of the Hart family alike. It was quickly dropped by WWE.
