Natalya is perhaps the most veteran female athlete present in the WWE locker room who has been competing in the company for about fifteen years. The former WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion suffered a setback, earlier this year due to an unfortunate ankle injury but then made a very quick recovery from it. She also had to eventually drop the Women’s Tag Team Championships with Tamina due to the injury.
As always, Natalya puts over several WWE Superstars during her ongoing stint on the Raw and Smackdown roster. After spending 15 years in the WWE, the Hart Dungeon members racked up quite a few accomplishments in her career. But she doesn’t plan on stopping anytime, soon as she’s busy bringing out more top talents for the future.

For the past few months, Liv Morgan has been getting a solid push on especially after the trade on Raw. She has a dedicated fanbase who has been following her as she put up years of hard work on the main roster since the debut in 2017 as part of the Riott Squad (also featuring Ruby Riott and Sarah Logan).
While speaking on Tuesday Wrestling Tuesday, Natalya made it clear that she is glad to see stars such as Liv Morgan getting opportunities in WWE,
“We hear a lot about ‘fresh, shiny, new’ and to me, there are a lot of people that have deserved a chance for a long time, Liv Morgan has been in WWE for over six years, and she isn’t someone that isn’t brand spanking new onto the scene, she’s a woman that has been there for a long time and fighting for an opportunity and a chance.”

Natalya has praise in-store for Liv Morgan
Natalya proceeded to in some more detail about Morgan and the constant efforts she is putting up in recent times before getting involved in Raw Women’s championship picture with the top superstar in Becky Lynch. It was also revealed during the conversation that Liv has been training for over a year with Nattie.
“I am proud of Liv because she has been training with us in the dungeon,” Natalya said. “She’s been training with us for over a year. I said to Liv, ‘it’s so cool to see.’ Because training isn’t once every six months. Training is being consistent every single week, on days that you’re tired.
You know, we know what it’s like to be exhausted. Getting off a plane, and having no energy left because you had three hours of sleep. You’ve just caught a red-eye, you’re finishing SmackDown, you’ve done a PPV, you’ve just done a loop of live events.” (quotes courtesy Wrestling INC)
Natalya has been traded to Smackdown while Liv was sent to Monday Night Raw during this past edition of Draft in October. These two previously featured in a feud on Raw that led to a Wrestlemania kickoff match during the 36 edition. The Queen of Harts also overcame all the three members of the Riott Squad in a very personal feud, back in 2018.
