Nattie and Jaida Parker are ready to settle their issues without pinfalls. During WWE NXT on August 25, 2026, Nattie challenged Parker to a submission match at NXT Heatwave on August 30.
Nattie started the confrontation by explaining that she came to NXT because she wanted to fight Parker. She admitted that she once saw something special in Parker but now considers her wasted potential despite believing she looks like a million bucks inside the ring.
The WWE veteran also claimed she was the best thing to happen to Parker because she gave the rising NXT star her attention. Nattie made it clear that she believes Parker needs someone with her experience to push her toward becoming better.
Parker came to the ring and immediately rejected Nattie’s version of events. She accused Nattie of trying to prove she was soft and didn’t belong in NXT, but Parker insisted she could see through the veteran’s motives.
Parker also made it clear that she doesn’t need Nattie’s help. In her eyes, Nattie should be thanking her for giving the veteran another meaningful fight instead of taking credit for Parker’s success.
Nattie then raised the stakes by revealing that she didn’t want another regular match. She challenged Parker to face her in a submission match at NXT Heatwave before ending the exchange by calling her a bitch.
The submission stipulation gives Nattie a chance to use her experience against Parker, but Parker has no intention of being treated like a rookie who needs guidance. Their heated rivalry will now be settled by forcing one another to give up.
