Natalya says her match on the July 3 episode of WWE Raw was personal.
In recent weeks, WWE Women's World Champion Rhea Ripley has dominated Natalya multiple times. She beat the veteran in roughly 69 seconds at WWE Night of Champions, and she later attacked Natalya before their scheduled rematch on the June 19 episode of WWE Raw. Natalya challenhed Ripley for the gold on the July 3 episode and battled it out with the champion. She made the champion bleed, and she pushed Ripley more than the powerhouse has been tested in quite some time. However, Ripley still emerged victorious.
In a tweet, Natalya stated that the match was personal, as it was an apology to herself for putting up with what she didn't deserve. She then thanked everyone for their support.
Sometimes people forget, until I get the chance to remind them. I was made in The Dungeon. I can take anyone to their limit on any night, because that’s what top level competitors do. Now line up the rest and let me loose on them too. pic.twitter.com/ko3if7lkkM
