Natalya says never say never when it comes to potentially joining the WWE creative team. However, she is focused on growing as a competitor.
Natalya has been with WWE since 2007, and she has set multiple records during her time with the company. She has also held the SmackDpwn Women’s Championship, the Divas Championship, and the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship.
During a recent appearance on Busted Open, Natalya discussed potentially joining the creative team following the end of her in-ring career. (H/t Jeremy Lambert of Fightful for the transcription)
“I will tell you, our writing team has an extremely challenging job,” Natalya said. “My husband TJ always says this, he always says, ‘Nobody understands how challenging it is to book the show.’ TJ is a producer and works closely with the writers and behind the scenes. He always says, ‘You never know when someone is injured or gets COVID or somebody is working through a situation.’ I think the writers have such a challenging job because there are so many people that you’re trying to please. I’ll be honest, at times, there is a lot of massaging of egos because everybody wants to be the best.
“Everybody wants to win, protect their equity, be on top. Everybody wants to main event WrestleMania and be The One. Sometimes, you need a bride, and sometimes, you need a bridesmaid. The writers have an extremely challenging job. Never say never. For me, I have a lot of really fun things coming up that do involve writing, creating, and me celebrating my career and everything I’ve accomplished. Never say never as far as doing more in WWE, but I’m so excited about growing. 2024 is a year about growth.”
