Nattie Neidhart has been missing from WWE RAW for months, but she isn’t sounding frustrated about spending all that time away from television. Instead, the veteran says she’s trusting WWE’s timing — and waiting until there’s actually a reason for her to come back.
Speaking on Busted Open, Nattie addressed her lengthy absence from RAW and where things currently stand with her return. She hasn’t appeared on the show since the March 16 episode, when she defeated Maxxine Dupri, but she made it clear she’s ready whenever WWE decides the story calls for her.
“So while I haven’t been on RAW, it’s okay because obviously timing for me is everything, and I really trust in the process. I’m excited to come back to RAW when the time is right, whenever I’m needed and the story calls for it.”
Nattie also pointed toward just how much the RAW roster has changed while she’s been away. With Lola Vice and Sol Ruca coming into the mix and 946 continuing to grow, she believes there are plenty of fresh faces getting their opportunity right now.
“There are so many additions to the show. We got Lola and Sol. We’re seeing all these new members of 946. When Jaida Parker joined that, I was like, ‘S**t, now this is getting juicy.’”
Nattie has certainly stayed busy away from RAW as well. Her TripleMania appearance in September left her needing major dental surgery after the match, including work on her two front teeth, two dental implants and 20 stitches in her mouth, though she later confirmed she was medically cleared to wrestle.
For now, Nattie isn’t putting a date on her RAW comeback or trying to force herself back into the picture. After more than seven months away, she’s basically leaving the door open for WWE to call when they have something worth bringing her back for — and she sounds more than ready to answer it.
