Natalya said she was honored to be back in WWE NXT

Natalya is one of the best female in-ring workers in WWE history. The 41-year-old star has shared the ring with many big names during her lengthy career.

When she was interviewed backstage after her match on NXT, Nattie stated that she felt happy and honored to be back in the white and gold brand.

"Honestly, I’m speechless because it feels just surreal being back here. Even though I’m one of the most winning women in WWE history and I do have the world record for that [laughs], it’s been a minute since I’ve actually had a victory in WWE. These moments, I don’t take for granted. I just feel so honored to be here. I almost got choked up when I heard the crowd. It just made me emotional because it brought back so many memories of some of the best moments of my career that were at NXT, truly," she said. (H/T Fightful)

The Queen of Harts also praised Lola Vice and said that the latter was one of the fastest-rising stars in NXT:

"Being in the ring with Lola, I realized more than ever that she is one of fastest-rising stars in NXT. She’s amazing, but she’s not the BOAT. Knowing that she’s so talented, but also seeing how cocky she is, it just felt really good putting her in her place tonight. I don’t know, I think I need to go celebrate with a glass of wine and some chocolate."

It will be interesting to see which other superstars Natalya will work with in NXT. She has competed on the show multiple times.
