WWE Record Breaker To Debut For Two Promotions
A former WWE Champion is set to make two exciting appearances outside of the company.
Back in July, it was reported that Natalya had signed a new WWE contract. However, the star has been used sparingly since penning the new deal and has wrestled just once on the main roster in 2025.
But according to a surprise new announcement, Natalya will become the latest Superstar to take their skills outside of the company. As revealed by Josh Barnett, Natalya will make her Bloodsport debut at Bloodsport XIII on April 17.
The match will be Natalya’s first match outside of WWE or a WWE developmental promotion since January 2007.
“The Queen of Harts. A member of the legacy filled Hart family. She spent time in the Hart Dungeon learning hoe to crank, rip, and tear wrestlers apart. You could say the she was BORN for this,
We she torture her opponent to the point of submission or will it be her hung from the rack? What will Bloodsport bring out of this veteran wrestler?”
Natalya Swapping WWE For The NWA
Just 24 hours later, it was announced that Natalya would appear at NWA’s Crockett Cup event on May 17 at the famous 2300 Arena in Philadelphia.
In a press release, NWA boss Billy Corgan said he was pleased and proud that Natalya would be involved before thanking WWE for their support on “this historic night.” NWA Chief Operations Officer Joe Galli also expressed his excitement at the news.
“Following the enthusiastic response to our sold-out anniversary celebration there last August, we aimed to enhance the experience for fans at the 2300 Arena. The inclusion of WWE’s Natalya in this year’s Cup adds a noteworthy element to our return to Philadelphia and we are excited to see who she will face from the NWA roster,”
Natalya officially signed with WWE in 2007 and has since gone on to break several company records. The Canadian currently holds the record for the most number of matches for a female Superstar, most wins for a female Superstar, most PLE appearances for a female Superstar, and most WrestleMania appearances for a female Superstar.
