Natalya comments on possibly joining the WWE creative team after retiring from the ring.
Natalya is one of WWE's top long term veterans in the company, and has proven to be an invaluable resource for the company as talent within WWE have been training with Nattie and TJ Wilson at the Hart Dungeon. While she continues to help the younger generation, Natalya is also still an active competitor on WWE television, currently a member of the Monday Night RAW roster.
However, as time ticks down on her in ring career, Natalya is keeping her options open for after. While speaking on Busted Open recently, Natalya addressed if she would like to join the WWE creative team following her retirement from active competition.
"I will tell you, our writing team has an extremely challenging job. 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."
Natalya last competed on the February 19th edition of Monday Night RAW, eliminating her tag team partner Tegan Nox from the Last Chance Battle Royal for a spot in the Women's Elimination Chamber this weekend.
