Natalya Expresses Her Desire To Fight Miyu Yamashita In WWE On Social Media

Former SmackDown Women’s Champion Natalya wants to battle Miyu Yamashita inside a WWE ring.

Nattie recently appeared on Cody Rhodes’ What Do You Wanna Talk About? podcast, where she and The American Nightmare heaped praise on the Japanese star.

Reacting to the kind words on X, Yamashita acknowledged both Cody and Natalya while also reminiscing about her battle with The Queen of Harts at GCW Josh Barnett’s Bloodsport XIII earlier this year.

Yamashita said that their fight was “incredible” and “truly special,” adding that she was able to give her best because Natalya was her opponent.

“Honestly, I can’t ignore this—two wrestlers I truly respect mentioning me. He’s right. That fight was incredible because we were incredible together, and it felt truly special. I was able to give my very best because she was my opponent. Thank you, Cody Rhodes and Nattie,” she wrote.

“Blood in our mouths and bruises underneath our clothes, Miyu. Just know, this is the part NATTIE lives for. I hope to fight you in WWE one day soon. So I can beat your a** all over again.”
