A WWE superstar shared the details of their recent injury.

On February 16, a 3-way bout to decide the next entrant in the women’s Elimination Chamber match took place between Bayley, Nattie, and Asuka.

While all three women gave it their all, it was The Empress of Tomorrow who emerged victorious after she made Bayley tap out to the Asuka Lock.

The Japanese star now joins Tiffany Stratton, Rhea Ripley, and Alexa Bliss in the chamber. The matches to determine the final two entrants will take place on WWE SmackDown and next week’s Raw tapings.

On the blue brand, it will be Charlotte Flair taking on Nia Jax and Kiana James, whereas on the flagship, one-half of the Women’s World Champion, Iyo Sky, will face Raquel Rodriguez and Kairi Sane.

Nattie Suffers Injury On WWE Raw

Natalya was recently repackaged as Nattie, a gimmick she has been using while competing in the independent circuit.

This version of the Canadian veteran is a no-nonsense and ruthless one, committed only to punishing their opponent and winning.

On last week’s WWE Raw, Nattie took on her former protege, Maxxine Dupri, in a singles match. However, her objective in the match was not to win, but to teach Dupri a lesson.

In doing so, she let both of them get counted out by the referee before applying the Sharpshooter submission with Dupri laid out on the commentator’s desk.

As Nattie was headed to the back after her 3-way match, she was ambushed by Dupri, who shoved her against the LED walls by the entrance.

The 43-year-old later revealed her injury through a post on X, advising caution to the former WWE Women’s Intercontinental Champion.
