Mercedes Moné calls Natalya an absolute legend

Natalya has been in the wrestling industry for a long time and she is universally respected for her work. Names from both companies admire her and Mercedes Moné had her say on the matter the same recently.

In the latest edition of the Mone Mag, she hailed Natalya as an absolute legend and said that she helped shape her career.

"Let me start with Natalya, an absolute legend in her own right. She’s been wrestling longer than me and has helped shape so many careers, including mine. My first dark match, some of my first NXT matches, Natalya was right there with me. I still remember being in the ring with her, and she would whisper things like, 'You’re doing great,' or 'Amazing job!' Honestly, that meant the world to me,'' she wrote.

It is great to see someone like Mercedes Moné speak so highly of another fellow wrestler. It will be interesting to see what Natalya will have to say about this.
