She also issued an open challenge to elevate the title to new heights.

Natalya accepted the challenge as the former women's champion said she had always waited for an opportunity. The match was made official after an attack from the Queen of Harts.

In the match's closing stages, Natalya hit the discus lariat for a nearfall. However, the bout ended as Big Time Becks secured the win with a rollup pin.
