In case you didn't know...
WrestleMania 35 saw Sasha Banks and Bayley, the inaugural WWE Women's Tag Team Champions, defend their titles in a Fatal-4-Way match. One of their opposing teams consisted of Natalya and her best friend, the returning Beth Phoenix. Despite coming up short, Phoenix didn't look like she'd lost a step since her match and after in spite of her team coming up short, Phoenix had the following to say about her WrestleMania 35 experience:
"It was a full circle moment. Bret Hart vs. Owen Hart (at WrestleMania X) was the match that made me certain I was destined to become a wrestler. On the 25th Anniversary, I got to walk to the ring to the Hart Foundation music in pink and black and hi-five my hero.
Nothing could ever compare to that moment. It was so special and I’ll never forget it."
