WWE Superstar Natalya has listed a number of potential dream bouts amidst uncertainty around her future.

The former WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion has spent 17 years with WWE having first inked a developmental deal with the company in January 2007.

She has gone on to become an established name in the women’s division over the years but the future of the Canadian Superstar is currently hanging in the balance, with recent reports suggesting that just a handful of days remain on her contract.

The popular 41 year-old did nothing to dispel rumours that she may soon depart WWE during a recent appearance on Casual Conversations with The Classic, instead listing some big name stars outside of WWE that she still wishes to compete against:

“I want to still keep moving forward in the business. Like, people say, ‘When are you gonna slow down? When are you gonna retire?’ I feel like I’m in the best shape of my life, I’m doing the best work of my career. I just have so much more I want to do. There’s just so many more women in the industry that I want to work.

Not just in WWE, but I want to work with Gail Kim. I want to work with Jordynne Grace. I see some of these Japanese girls that I admire so much. Some of them come and train with me, but I’m like, one day, I want to work with these girls. There’s girls from every corner of the industry that I’m like, I want to work with her. I want to work with her. I want to wrestle the best.”

Top WWE Star Calls For Return Of Evolution PLE

One huge Premium Live Event that Natalya competed on was the 2018 all-women’s event, Evolution.

On that occasion, Natalya teamed with Sasha Banks and Bayley in a victorious effort over The Riott Squad. One member of that team, current WWE Women’s Champion Bayley, has called for the event to return for a second incarnation in the near future.
