Natalya talks time off from WWE, future projects, more

[Chris]

On time off from WWE:

“I took a little time off this summer and the company was so great about it. They were like ‘Take as much time as you need.'”

“It’s really changing so much in the best way and the culture is so different now. Like, our boss, Triple H, he is such a cool boss. I just recently got eye surgery to correct astigmatism in my eye and I needed a little bit more time off to get that done. He’s like, ‘Go get your eyes fixed.’ He’s like ‘Don’t even worry about it, go take care of yourself.'”

“I had my last match in June so it was not even three months but I took a little break because I was like, I need a little mental reset. Like, I just need some time to regroup, recalibrate, refocus. Again, it was for my mental health because it’s one thing to be healthy and fit on a treadmill, or you look great, or you got abs, but if your head isn’t right, you can’t do any of the fun stuff.”

On Hart family projects:

“I’ve still been sworn to secrecy about it so I won’t give out spoilers but there’s two different things that I’m working on and again, it’s about keeping the Hart family name alive."

On Owen Hart:

“I still think to this day it would be so cool if Owen was still here and he could help me or we could talk about wrestling,. And I know you guys probably feel that same way too about your family. Like, it would be so cool to be able to bond with them and share your hopes and dreams and fears and the goods and the bads of life. But, I think about Owen every day. It was just a really, really hard time for our family but I love that he is being celebrated. His wife Martha, his son Oje, and daughter Athena, they are doing everything they can to keep his legacy alive.”
