Calgary Sun Article/Interview with Natalya – 1/4/2019
|
|
It’s hard to believe 2019 is here and there’s so much to plan! I had a giant New Year’s Eve party at my house! Heck, we already had three Christmas dinners in the past two weeks because no one in my family could decide whose house we were going to go to. The Hart family loves to celebrate!
Undeniably, the last year in WWE has been awesome! I competed at WrestleMania, was in a Money in the Bank ladder match, got drafted to Monday Night Raw, performed in the first all-women’s pay-per-view, Evolution, had a tables match with Ruby Riott, performed in front of thousands of our troops and faced off against Ronda Rousey for the Raw Women’s Championship.
I got to do so many cool things this past year. It’s also been a year of so much personal growth for me. When my dad passed away, I was under a lot of stress with planning a funeral, trying to pick out just the right flowers and pictures and simply trying to find the right way to say goodbye. It just seemed like it was easier for me to not say goodbye at all. That was tough. I think I cried so hard there were times I didn’t feel like I had any tears left inside to cry.
There were moments last year in which I wasn’t sure how I’d get through but I did. In my championship match against Ronda Rousey, I felt overwhelming pressure to be the best. I used that pressure to rise up and have an awesome match with her. I thought about the hard times, and how I made it through those, so I could make it through this. I remember us both being super emotional when we got backstage because we felt like all of our training together had paid off and we finally got to tell a great story in the ring!

WWE Raw Results – Natalya vs Ronda Rousey – 12/24/20...

Ronda Rousey did not look thrilled about having to defend her Raw Women’s Title against Natalya; Ronda was uncharacteristically muted-looking and off-kilter in the early goings of the match, and it wasn’t difficult to see Ronda Rousey was having a difficult time wrapping her head around fighting the woman who helped train her for WWE.
Natalya, who scored three straight victories in a Gauntlet Match to earn the opportunity last week, certainly didn’t hesitate to take advantage of Ronda Rousey’s hesitation, grinding The Queen of Harts Natalya down in the hopes of locking in the Sharpshooter. Even as Ronda stirred to life, she seemed reluctant to pull the proverbial trigger … until Natalya finally applied her signature hold with a look of gleeful disbelief on her face. With Natalya unwilling to relinquish the submission, Ronda was forced to spring into action, reversing the hold into an immediate Armbar that won the match and brought tears to her eyes. The post-match embrace was well-earned from a competition standpoint and served as a touching affirmation that the grueling fight that preceded it was nothing personal.

Later tonight on a Christmas Eve edition of Raw Friendship will be put to the test when Natalya takes on her training partner and friend Ronda Rousey for the Raw Women’s Championship.
Both Superstars have shown recently how ruthless they can be. Natalya held nothing back in her Tables Match against Ruby Riott at WWE TLC, then went on to defeat three Superstars in a row during last Monday’s Gauntlet Match. While Ronda made Nia Jax submit to the Armbar at TLC.
The stakes are high for these indomitable women, and regardless of the outcome, their friendship could very well change forever.

From the moment she first came before the WWE Universe, Natalya realized that competing in WWE was a gift, one she would utilize to its fullest extent. Of course, being trained in the legendary Hart Family Dungeon alongside a few famous family members didn't hurt either.
Despite a profound desire to forge her own path, there's no denying that Natalya possesses the "hart" to reach new heights in the ring. Whether creating havoc as part of The Hart Dynasty, executing the family Sharpshooter or stepping out on her own to capture the Divas Championship, the fiery third-generation Diva has shown time-and-time again that the legendary Pink & Black legacy is safe in her hands.
