Mercedes Mone recently shared her thoughts about WWE’s Natalya in her newsletter, “Mone Mag.” Mone credited the former SmackDown Women’s Champion for her guidance and positive feedback throughout her journey in WWE.
Mercedes Mone Stated :
“Let me start with Natalya, an absolute legend in her own right. She’s been wrestling longer than me and has helped shape so many careers, including mine. My first dark matches, some of my first NXT matches — Natalya was right there with me. I still remember being in the ring with her, and she would whisper things like ‘You’re doing great’ or ‘Amazing job,’ honestly, that meant the world to me. Those little moments of encouragement, they stick with you. When I step in the ring with less-experienced talent, I try to pass that same energy along. It’s all about building confidence because trust me, we’ve all been there,” (Via Mone Mag/Wrestling Inc)
Natalya debuted in WWE in 2008 after training in Deep South Wrestling. She first appeared on WWE SmackDown where she showed off her wrestling skills. Throughout her career, Natalya has achieved many milestones, including winning the Divas Championship at the “WWE Night of Champions” in 2010 and the SmackDown Women’s Championship in 2017.
