Natalya might’ve thought she was just making another stop on the independent scene—but Booker T has other plans.

On June 22, the WWE Hall of Famer took to Twitter to announce who will be standing across the ring from Nattie at Reality of Wrestling on June 28. And it’s personal.

“Hey @NatbyNature meet @PromiseBraxton. I call her the Chosen One for a reason. You’ll find out why on the 28th.”

The tweet came with a reposted promo from Reality of Wrestling featuring Promise Braxton herself responding to the match. In the dark-lit clip, Braxton didn’t hold back—making it clear she’s ready to test the veteran in front of her home crowd.

This matchup has been brewing since Natalya announced she’d be wrestling for Booker T’s Reality of Wrestling, tweeting:

“Booker, by all means walk your chosen one to the ring when NATTIE gets to Texas. As long as you’re prepared to carry her back out again.”

Now that the opponent is official, the energy around this one just got real. Braxton, who’s built a name as one of the top women in ROW, is getting the biggest spotlight of her career—and Booker’s all in on backing her against one of WWE’s most decorated stars.

Do you think Promise Braxton will shock Natalya in Texas? Or is this just another veteran clinic from The Queen of Harts? Sound off in the comments and let us know who you’re backing on June 28.
