Natalya Called THIS WWE SmackDown Newbie A "Special Talent"
WWE veteran Natalya thinks this newcomer is a future SmackDown Women's Champion.
Natalya believes it's only a matter of time before Toni Storm becomes a focal point of WWE's female ranks and captures the SmackDown Women's Title.
The Canadian called Toni a "special talent" during her interview with WWE's in-house show The Bump. When pressed for more, Nattie said that Storm's "etiquette" behind the scenes impressed her immediately; Natalya knew about Toni before the former Stardom and Progress stand out had even joined the company.
Other women spoke so highly of Storm that Nattie was curious to find out what all the fuss was about. It became clear why people were high on Toni as soon as they first started chatting - the newbie, who is currently locked in a feud with brand champ Charlotte Flair on Friday nights, was humble-but-knowledgeable.
Natalya liked that, and also enjoyed how passionate Storm is for pro wrestling. That's something else they've got in common, so the veteran knew they'd get along famously so long as Toni didn't get too big for her boots (which she doesn't think was ever going to happen).
According to Nattie, Storm is a SmackDown Women's Champ elect and a future division leader.
