#6 Natalya
Still just 34 years old, it feels like Natalya has been in WWE forever. She’s been through the worst of times with the Divas division and all the costume contests and bikini contests that came with it. And now she’s here for the best of times, the revamped women’s division that actually takes women’s wrestling seriously.
Considering she’s been in the company for 10 years, it’s a tad surprising that Natalya has only been champion once, and it was all the way back in 2010. The daughter of Jim “The Anvil” Neidhart is one of the better in-ring talents in the Women’s division and is more than capable of hanging with anyone on the roster.
But her mic skills are what have always held her back. She usually sounds like a kid trying to give a presentation in school. Her heel turn helped a bit because her bad mic skills are what a lot of people disliked about her, so she’s using it to her advantage by being so obnoxious and over the top.
Regardless, she’s still a valuable mainstay in the Women’s division. Her ability to have good matches with anyone will keep her relevant for as long as she wants to wrestle, making her one of the better active third-generation superstars. She finally ended her title drought at Summerslam 2017 when she defeated Naomi clean to become SmackDown Women’s Champion.
