If you watched this past Monday's RAW, you'll know that Natalya's tooth was knocked out during a match with Lacey Evans on the show. While it's hard to imagine her being too happy about that, a recent appearance on D-Von Dudley's "Table Talk" podcast saw the former Women's Champion's open up about what happened.
"This is the second time in a wrestling match that I lost a tooth," Natalya reflected. "I lost my front teeth a few years ago upon some impact in the ring. I was in Las Vegas and had to get those fixed with an emergency dentist at midnight. This past week on Monday Night Raw, I got kicked in the mouth."
"People were asking me if I was mad at Lacey [Evans]," she continued. "The truth of the matter is no because it’s wrestling. It is not ballet. It’s hard as hell and when we get in there, it’s go time and the girls don’t play. I think sometimes the girls hit harder than the guys. Lacey is a big girl. She is a strong girl. She is a badass and she booted me in the tooth. It fractured my tooth and my tooth was gone. I got backstage and realized I lost a tooth."
It's cool to get Natalya's insight into this, and it's no wonder she's a tough cookie given the family she comes from! If WWE is smart, they'll capitalise on this and have Natalya feud with Lacey Evans for a few weeks, but it's hard to say with this company.
We'll keep you updated!
