WWE Women’s Intercontinental Champion Maxxine Dupri has credited a Raw star with changing the way she works inside the ring.
In the weeks since she dethroned Becky Lynch for the Women’s Intercontinental Championship on the November 17 episode of Raw, Maxxine Dupri has featured in vignettes alongside veteran WWE star Natalya – with the veteran helping toughen Dupri up ahead of her future title defenses.
Speaking with the Battleground Podcast, Dupri opened up on how Natalya has helped her fine tune her work between the ropes:
“She has completely shifted my aggression and my in-between moments. And I think that those are the things that takes a wrestling match from, ‘Ok that was good’, to ‘Wow, I feel so connected to what’s happening in that ring. And she does such a good job of fine tuning and showing you exactly what you need to change.
“Sometimes that means she’s slapping you across the face, or she’s on top of you, beating you up and showing you exactly the level of intent you need to have.
“She has hands down changed the way I work in the ring by blessing me with her knowledge.”
