Why Natalya Is The Best Of All Time

She deserves the praise. For as many roster changes as you get in WWE, there are going to be some names who stick around for a very long time. Some of the names are more popular than others, but at the same time they stick around for a reason. The wrestlers who are able to stay on the roster for that long are there due to being that talented. One of them has been bragging about their talents as of late, and it’s rather well deserved.

There have been a lot of positive upgrades for the WWE women’s divisions over the last five years but one of the few constants has been Natalya. She is one of the more polished in-ring performers of her generation if not ever, and she has been able to stick around for a long time as a result. Since she has been around that long, she has build up quite a resume, and now we know a little more about it.

Natalya has released a graphic showing some statistics about her career, including records in the categories of most matches, most wins, most pay per view matches, most television matches and most television wins. This comes after Lana declared Natalya to be the best female wrestler of all time in an exchange with Mickie James. Natalya vs. James has been announced for next week’s Monday Night Raw.

She has a point. Check out Natalya’s meeting with James and some of her better moments:

Opinion: I’m not entirely surprised by how many matches and wins Natalya has had as she has been in WWE since 2008. That blows away almost anyone else in the modern division and Natalya has been one of the more consistent in-ring performers of that time. She might not be everyone’s most favorite star, but she will have a place in the ring for as long as she wants one.

What do you think of Natalya? Will she be Women’s Champion again? Let us know in the comments below.
