A character change has been confirmed during tonight’s January 26 episode of WWE Raw in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Last week on Raw, Becky Lynch retained the Women’s Intercontinental Championship against former champion Maxxine Dupri.
Lynch’s win came after Natalya – who was supposedly in Dupri’s corner – interfered to cost Dupri the match before attacking her in the ring.
The past year has seen Natalya perform in different promotions outside of mainline WWE TV, including the NWA, GCW and AAA.
For these matches, she has specifically been competing as Nattie Neidhart, a more aggressive side of herself.
Despite using the Nattie Neidhart name and personality outside of WWE TV, she had still largely been appearing as the more traditional Natalya on Raw, but that looks to be changing now.
On tonight’s Raw, Natalya seemingly officially introduced Nattie Neidhart to the WWE Raw audience off the back of last week’s attack.
Tonight, she said:
“Maxxine I made you, and you failed. You didn’t fail you, you failed me.
“You’re just like the rest of them, you think because you’ve rolled with a legend that you can roll like a legend.
“But that will never happen again, this is a whole new me, and when I’m done with you Maxxine, I’m coming for it all.
“Because Natalya elevates, but Nattie decimates.”
