WWE SmackDown: Women’s Division Ranking for September
WWE.com
7. Natalya
It’s not that Natalya is bad at what she does, it’s just nobody cares about what she’s doing these days. She’s a natural face that is being forced to be a heel and she’s just not very good at it. Everything she says is with a smile, and it looks like she is constantly thinking about what she should do next that could come off as mean. Her gimmick changes from egotistical, to annoyed Soccer Mom, to “Did you know my Uncle was Bret Hart?” It’s just all over the place and fans can’t really get a hold of what she’s trying to do.
She wasn’t able to win the title, nor the No. 1 contender match a few days later and Natalya has yet to lock up a real feud with anyone. At this point the only person available is Naomi, but WWE doesn’t seem big on setting them against each other yet. If WWE isn’t going to pair her up with a wrestler or turn her good, she’s going to be a bit of a lost cause in the division. No worries, though, it pretty much a guarantee that she’ll be a trainer down at the Performance Center in the near future, so she has that to look forward to.
