Nattie Neidhart recently revealed which wrestlers she would have liked to face from any era in WWE, one of whom was close to home and another who was from years past. The WWE star spoke with The Sportster over SummerSlam weekend for a quick interview and was asked which wrestler she would have loved to have faced from any era.

Nattie named her husband TJ Wilson as a modern choice, and then Mae Young as the star she would have liked to face in her prime. You can see the highlights below:

On Who Her Dream Match From Modern-Era WWE Would Have Been:

“You know — and this is going to sound crazy. But you know who I think one of the most underrated wrestlers ever, is is Tyson Kidd. I think he is so smooth, and I know he wasn’t like a big top star, but when I go back and watch his work, I would say anybody — Chad Gable actually said it the other day. We were backstage and he was like, ‘Man, TJ would have been a dream match for me.’

“Tyson Kidd is one of the — if I could ever have like, if I was allowed to pick anybody and we could do a big television match? He is like a wealth of ideas. He is smooth as butter and what he could do in the ring was just he was magical. ”

On Who She Would Pick From Any Era:

“If I could go back in time and wrestle somebody in their prime, I would have loved to have wrestled Mae Young in her prime. In her prime, when she was a young girl, because I heard my grandfather said she was a shooter. And she was just like — you know, we could have done an underground match. If she was in her prime.”
