42-year-old WWE veteran returns to singles action on RAW after 105 days
On the latest episode of Monday Night RAW, WWE veteran Natalya competed in her first singles match on the red brand in over three months. She collided with Zoey Stark of Pure Fusion Collective.
The former SmackDown Women's Champion tried to go for the Sharpshooter immediately after the bell rang, but Stark quickly got to the ropes. Stark nailed Natalya with a springboard dropkick and tried to hit the same move again a few minutes later, but Nattie evaded it and hit a clothesline.
She then hit the PFC member with a few strikes in the corner and planted her on the mat with a facebuster and a kick for a two-count. Zoey Stark nailed the WWE veteran with a Death Valley Driver and hit a superkick for a nearfall.
Zoey Stark pounded Nattie on the mat and tried to hit the Z360, but the latter reversed it into a sharpshooter. The two stars took turns pinning each other and the referee counted to three while Stark's shoulders were on the mat, giving Natalya the victory.
This was Natalya's first singles match on WWE RAW since she faced Kiana James on the June 3 episode of the red brand.
