Natalya Believes That There’s Real Tension Between Becky Lynch And Nikki Bella
Natalya is a big fan of the feud between Nikki Bella and Becky Lynch.
After weeks of back and forth, Bella and Lynch are set to fight at WWE Clash In Paris, giving Bella the chance to win the Women’s Intercontinental Championship for the first time in her career.
Speaking on the latest episode of Busted Open Radio, Natalya gave her thoughts on the feud, praising Nikki Bella for channeling her past.
“Their segment, from what I understand, was one of the most viewed segments on the show and that’s because I do believe there’s real tension between the two of them. I think with Nikki, she’s in a place in her life where she’s been scrutinized, she’s been criticized, she’s been through the wringer up and down and back again. That’s the thing, part of being famous is, oh, leave us alone, don’t critique us because we’re famous. That’s the thing — when you’re in the spotlight, especially when you start to become more famous, you get more critique. My thing is — there’s people I like, there’s people I don’t like. I think with Nikki, she’s using all of it, every hardship that she’s been through, every breakup that she’s been through, everything that’s been challenging for her in her life, she’s channeling it in this feud and I love it. She has never — since I’ve known Nikki from day one, she has never ever been a victim, she’s always been a survivor. That’s the thing that Becky doesn’t realize is that Nikki has been a survivor of so many things that she doesn’t even talk about. Things that I know that, because I’m close friend of hers, she’s channeling all of that into this feud. I’m excited to see their match at Clash, I think their story has been fascinating. We go back to when Becky threw the first shot at Nikki, it was a low blow. It was meant to be a low blow. Becky knew exactly what she was doing, she was trying to hit Nikki in the heart. Nikki’s already five steps ahead of Becky because she’s like, I’ve already been hurt so much that you’re not going to hurt me anymore. I’m gonna take everything that you’re saying and I’m going to channel it into my performance and I’m gonna beat the living [shit] out of you.”
