Natalya recently had the chance to write an article about the upcoming Money in the Bank women’s match for the Calgary Sun. The former WWE Diva’s Champion commented on the Women’s Revolution, her Money in the Bank opponents, MITB prediction, and more.

Here are the highlights.

On the Women’s Revolution 

“Rollins used his contract to cash in at the main event at WrestleMania and win the WWE title.

“Now five women are about to make history, another step in what started as a movement and has evolved into a revolution in WWE history … or should I say herstory.

“That revolution has featured the first women’s Hell in Cell match, where Flair and The Boss Sasha Banks made history, a “Falls Count Anywhere Match” between myself and Nikki Bella, a “steel cage” match main event on Smackdown Live with Becky Lynch and Alexa Bliss, and now this historic ladder match.

“My foes in this match are four incredibly talented women for whom I have the utmost respect: Tamina Snuka, Carmella, Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair. Every one of these girls is tough. Every one of these girls has earned her place in this ladder match.”

On her other opponents competing in the MITB women’s match:

“Snuka is of Polynesian descent and takes after her father, the late Jimmy Superfly Snuka, in the way she flies in the ring and delivers her signature Snuka splash.

“She’s fierce and overpowering, with a warrior spirit, and she brings fire and fury every night.

“Carmella is the so-called “moonwalking, trash-talking princess of Staten Island.” She is beautiful, but packs a mighty punch. Trust me, I’ve been the recipient of it and it hurts! She honed her craft in NXT, earned a place on the main roster and has never looked back.

“Lynch — the straight-fire, self-proclaimed lass kicker — is a woman who has given me some of the toughest bouts of my career. She’s not afraid to T-bone suplex a girl all over the ring to get what she wants. We actually competed together more than a decade ago in Japan before either one of us made it to WWE. Now, we’re both hungry to make a name for ourselves.

“Then you have my arch-nemesis: Flair. The daughter of superstar Ric Flair, she’s a multi-time former champion in WWE and is one of the most athletic women I’ve ever wrestled against. She’s strong and she possesses an iron will to succeed … which is maybe why we have butted heads so many times in the ring. Both of us being “generational kids” who have grown up around WWE our entire lives, we’ve always felt the need to prove ourselves and to escape the shadows cast by our legendary families. That’s what I love about wrestling Charlotte: her hunger. If there’s anyone who will rise to the occasion in this ladder match (besides me, of course) it’s Charlotte.”

MITB Prediction:

“Five women, one goal and one place in wrestling history. I’m so proud of how far we have come and I’m so excited for how far we will climb. In my case, it will be straight to the top of that ladder to secure my destiny.”
