Congratulations go out to WWE's Natalya!

WWE's Natalya had a wonderful comeback in 2024, and it looks like 2025 is full of potential for The Queen of Harts. Today, the former SmackDown Women's Champion reacted to her 18th anniversary in the Stamford-based promotion.

In 2007, Natalya signed her first contract with the company and worked under Vince McMahon's regime. The year after, she joined the main roster and hasn't looked back since. Apart from a few visits and matches on the developmental brand, the veteran has been a staple on the main roster.

Today, she reflected on her 18th anniversary with the promotion. Natalya uploaded a post to her social media accounts where she wrote about her run in the Stamford-based promotion and talked about her journey as a full-time performer. She also recently crossed 25 years as a performer.

"Today marks 18 years since I signed my first WWE contract. 18 uninterrupted years of wrestling full-time for @wwe. Being able to compete in the ring with over 65 different women, who have each made me a better wrestler in their own unique way. Every match and moment has been a chance to learn, grow and to connect with all of you. I couldn’t have asked for a better story," Natalya wrote.

Natalya wants to win the WWE Women's Intercontinental Championship

Last year, Natalya spent some time on the developmental brand, where she put Lola Vice over before returning to WWE's main roster. However, she was out for a few months and returned in September.

Later, the management announced two new women's titles and revealed a bracket for the upcoming tournaments. Natalya entered the bracket of the Women's Intercontinental Championship.

Unfortunately, she lost to Damage CTRL's IYO SKY. Nevertheless, The Queen of Harts is not done with the title and has vowed to win it in the coming months. Here's what she had to say about the newly introduced title.

"I have fought to be a champion my entire career; acquiring 6 world records for outworking every woman that’s ever stepped foot in @wwe. I want what I hope every person in this company wants, WHICH IS TO MATTER. I’m ready to make history as the first ever Women’s Intercontinental Champion," Natalya wrote.

While the second-generation star lost, she can again go after the title once a new champion is crowned. It'll be interesting to see how the star goes after the newly introduced title in the promotion.
