Natalya asks for "prayers" for legendary WWE Superstar who is now hospitalized for a week

A true WWE legend is in the hospital right now due to complications, and Natalya has sent out a very emotional message. She's asked for prayers for the star during his ordeal.

As reported earlier, Abdullah the Butcher, one of the best-known and feared wrestlers of his time, has been in the hospital for a whole week now. He has not been released from the hospital because of several intestinal issues. It's not clear if he's gone through surgery at this time. There's yet to be a proper update as to the details surrounding the hospitalization and how serious the situation is.

Abdullah was known for hardcore wrestling, and he sports the scars of his trade on his forehead, which is a mass of scarred skin from years of blading. The star is also recognized for his achievements and was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2011. He is 83 years old.

Natalya sent a message to the legendary WWE figure, letting Abdullah the Butcher know that the Hart Family was entirely behind him as he struggled with his health issues. She requested everyone to pray for the legend and said that the Hart Family had nothing but love and respect for him.

Natalya has been absent from WWE herself

The Hart Family member has not been a part of recent shows for some time. There were rumors that her time in the company was coming to an end with her contract expiring this Summer.

However, recent reports indicate that she has re-signed with the company and is back as part of the roster again. Nattie hasn't competed since the June 4 episode of NXT, and it seems unlikely that she'll be a part of the SummerSlam card next weekend.

Prior to her absence, she was associated with Sonya Deville. It remains to be seen when and how the company will feature the veteran next.
