WWE's 53 Wrestlers Ranked From Worst To Best
24. Natalya
Pros:
1. Arguably the most technically-sound female wrestler in the company
2. Has a ‘wrestling royalty’ connection to the Hart Family
3. Can put on great matches with virtually any Diva
Cons:
1. She’s pretty much a manager now
2. Despite having wrestled for 15 years, WWE haven’t booked her to be a real Champion
3. Is often relegated to secondary feuds and matches
If there’s one Diva who’s both beautiful and can wrestle, it’s Natalya Neidhart. She started wrestling long before her WWE debut, and has a wealth of experience as an athlete. Though not as exciting as, say, Lita or Trish Stratus, Natalya has still proven that she can use a plethora of different moves and can work well with pretty much anyone.
Unfortunately, ever since WWE ‘went in a new direction’ with their Divas Division, someone like Natalya was no longer their spokesperson for that division. They’re more focused on pushing ‘models’, which has led to Natalya playing second fiddle to the likes of the Bellas, Maryse, and Kaitlyn. Moreover, despite the whole ‘GiveDivasAChance’ thing, Natalya seems to be the one ‘worker’ Diva who’s still falling behind in terms of getting a title shot.
These days, Natalya spends most of her time managing Tyson Kidd and Cesaro, working different kinds of tag team matches, or babysitting younger Divas. It’s a waste of her natural talents, considering she could be putting on great matches right now.
Final Rating: ***1/2
