Natalya is definitely loved by a lot of her peers and fans alike, but there are also many who actually hate her. She was recently named in a list featuring wrestlers who got attacked the most on social media and now Natalya has reacted to the list.
While speaking to the Toronto Sun, Natalya talked about how she recently saw a list online of wrestlers and other talent who get harassed the most. She was tagged in tons of posts about it and found out she was number 15 on the list, along with Nikki Bella. She thought it was kind of funny and said it made her realize that people were definitely talking about her.
Even if people were saying mean or negative things, she knew that comes with being famous. Natalya says there will always be someone who doesnt like you, is jealous, or just doesnt agree with what you do. Over time, shes learned that whether people say good or bad things, at least theyre talking about her. It means they care enough to spend time thinking and typing about her.
Natalya said this actually works well for her wrestling character, Nattie, because that character doesnt care what people think. Nattie likes to get people talking and stir things up, so she thought it was pretty cool.
Natalya also felt proud to be on the list with some big names and liked turning something negative into something positive. She mentioned that she doesnt feel like she gets as much hate online as some others do, maybe because shes learned how to ignore it or rise above it.
In the end, the Queen of Harts said it doesnt matter if people are saying good things or bad things, or something in between; what matters is that theyre still talking about her and keeping her name out there.
If theyre thinking about her, theyre watching her, and thats whats important. Natalya believes people will keep watching her character and end up loving her. And if they dont, she doesnt care since they can go f*** themselves.
No matter what, Natalya is more than comfortable in her own skin and she couldnt care less what her haters have to say. Thats why fans continue to love her and thats not going to change anytime soon.
Do you agree with Natalyas perspective on turning online hate into fuel for her character? Why do you think so many wrestling stars face harsh criticism on social media? Sound off in the comments.
