Current SmackDown Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley picked up a smooth win against Natalya at Night of Champion last week in Saudi Arabia, recording three consecutive victories at PLEs this year in one-on-one matches. 2023 has been a fantastic year for the Eradicator so far. His winning race started with defeating Charlotte Flair to clinch the SmackDown Women’s Championship title in April. Then the Judgement Day member took down Zelina Vega in her homeland Puerto Rico at Backlash and then Natalya was next.

The current year is truly fulfilling for her in terms of her in-ring achievement. Moreover, Mami recently rose to the pinnacle of success as a celebrity TikToker too.
