WWE star Natalya recently shared exciting news about receiving a distinguished wrestling award in August. Having re-signed with WWE last year, Natalya has also participated in several independent matches under her real name, Natalya Neidhart. She recently competed in GCW’s Bloodsports and NWA events and is now set to receive an award. The Cauliflower Alley Club announced that she will be honored with the Lou Thesz Award at this year’s reunion, making her the first female wrestler to ever receive this accolade.
Natalya expressed her gratitude on Twitter, saying, “This is a special honor to follow many great people who have won this award before me. Wrestling has given me everything in my life. Being the first woman to win the Lou Thesz Award is incredibly exciting, and I look forward to continuing my journey in the business I love. Thank you @cacreunion.”
Fan Take: This milestone for Natalya is monumental, marking a breakthrough for female wrestlers in a traditionally male-dominated sport. WWE fans can look forward to seeing her legacy inspire more women in wrestling, pushing the industry towards greater inclusivity and recognition of female talent.
