#3 Lacey Evans gave Natalya a gift (WWE Crown Jewel 2019)
In October 2019, Natalya defeated Lacey Evans at the WWE Crown Jewel event in Saudi Arabia. The history-making match marked the first time that female WWE Superstars faced each other in the country.
Following the match, Natalya took to Instagram to reveal that she had been given a gift from her Crown Jewel opponent. Evans sent The Queen of Harts a framed picture, accompanied by a heartfelt message explaining how much the seven-minute match meant to her.
“Nattie, I can’t put into words how much this match meant to me. Not only for what it stands for, but for the fact that of all the people who could have been across the ring, guiding, and helping me… it was you. You have impacted me in so many ways in this journey and I am so thankful for strong, passionate, giving, leaders like you. Thank you for everything, Lacey Evans.”
Natalya posted the picture on her Instagram story and said she will have to find space for it in her dungeon.
Following the success of Natalya vs. Evans, WWE’s next Saudi Arabia event (Super ShowDown 2020) included another women’s match, Bayley vs. Naomi. Bayley retained her SmackDown Women’s Championship in a match lasting 11 minutes.
