I can't wait to see the episode of Total Divas about this injustice.

This was a total waste of a feud, they knew it by barely even referencing it until the match... and then having that match
Please give Rhea better competition

This was the kind of squash we usually inaccurately attribute to Charlotte Flair or Bianca Belair. As in, an actual one.

I appreciate them cutting to the chorus. But this does really put the shade to the "x is a bitch" comments recently about others, when Nattie clean jobs in like a minute and a bit.

I dunno how anyone could expect Natalya to resist "Dominik's boyish charm".
Good on her for lasting as long as she did in that match. A normal person would have crumbled in seconds.

I can't wait to see the episode of Total Divas about this injustice. Nattie: "Rhea kicked my ass. Now I'm the envy of the entire women's locker room. Best birthday ever!"

I mean Nattie is essentially a jobber anyways. Not sure what anyone expected. They already had two ladies matches that got a decent amount of time something had to be a squash. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Imagine being Nattie & Rhea
You make the incredibly long flight to Saudi just to be told you will only be wrestling for 5 minutes

Loved to see it.
If I never see Nat in a ring again it’ll be too soon

Everyone wants Rhea to get a "actual opponent".
I will play the contrarian. I think they should avoid giving Rhea an actual opponent for now. Rhea doesn't need one yet. She's already got plenty to keep her over as being Mami from Judgement Day. They can give her these small nothing type matches against people we know have no chance and no one cares about. Rhea is super dangerously close to being OP. I'd argue shes already OP; but we like her, so we look the other way. If they give her "actual opponents" that fans like and she keeps dominating them people will get sick of Rhea.
She's already beaten most of the fan favorites on her way to the title anyway. So the "real opponents" left are: Becky, Bianca, Ronda, (I guess Trish maybe?) These are BIG 4 PLE level. Don't waste them just yet. Potential "real opponents" are: IYO, Raquel. I say keep them as far away from Rhea as possible until they are in a position to either win, or where a loss won't hurt.

The other thing is that she's currently strongly over (to the point there were MAMI chants even when she was in with Sami and KO the other week), and there's a risk of damaging faces by going against her. I'm looking forward to when she has more substantive feuds, but at least with fodder like Natalya you don't have that risk.

I say keep them as far away from Rhea as possible until they are in a position to either win, or where a loss won't hurt. Another good potential opponent (if she wants to wrestle again) is Beth. Crowds have been strongly into their confrontations, they carefully established during the Edge/JD feud that Rhea could only get the upper hand on Beth by cheating, and Beth laid Rhea out at the end of their tag match with a Glam Slam on the floor. So there's a built-in story and stakes if they choose to revisit it as a singles match.

Dom jumping into Rhea's arms after the victory was cute, not gonna lie.

I can't believe we've been celebrating Nattie's 32nd birthday for nine years already.

Rhea has very protective booking right now.
But also she is in some super weird position right now..where on her own she is rather dull but when she has Dom who generates all the heat then everyone is all for whatever she does.
I think WWE is booking her with the thought her title reign is not what this audience cares about it is the pairing with Dom which they would not be wrong about.

Had to get back before the Ice Cream melted. Honestly sounds much a Vince call, To have the Birthday Girl or Home town person get humiliated.

Nothing against Nattie, she's a solid hand, but this was absolutely the right decision.

I mean there’s no reason for Nattie to be in a title match when you have way more women. Nothing against her but there’s nothing interesting about her. She’d be better off in NXT in the Tyson Kidd role.
