Tonight, Natalya will compete in the first round of the Queen of the Ring tournament on Raw.

She will be facing former WWE Women’s Champion and member of Damage Control, Iyo Sky.

Natalya has dedicated the match to her uncle Owen Hart.

She wrote on X: “Tonight on Raw, I get the chance to compete against the one and only @Iyo_SkyWWE. Wrestling Iyo has been a dream match of mine since she came to WWE. And tonight is a first ever for us to face off. I’m dedicating this match to my favorite King of the Ring winner, the King of Harts, Owen Hart. On the eve of Owen’s birthday, he’ll be in my heart tonight more than ever.

Owen won the 1994 edition of the tournament. He defeated Doink the Clown, Tatanka, The 1–2–3 Kid and Razor Ramon to do so but beat everyone except Doink during the actual King of the Ring broadcast.

As Natalya said in her post Owen’s birthday is May 7th. He would have been 58 this year.
