Nattie on Her Belief “Jaida Parker Is The Female Jacob Fatu”

A recent episode of the Busted Open After Dark’s The Hart Beat podcast featured Nattie as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Nattie’s thoughts about her recent return to WWE’s NXT brand specifically for a program with Jaida Parker and her belief that Parker is the “female Jacob Fatu.”

“A lot of things were accomplished tonight, and this is exactly why I asked Shawn Michaels to please (let me) come and work with Jaida Parker in NXT. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: not a single soul asked me to come to NXT. It’s not like ‘Oh, she’s being asked to go down there because she’s trying to take someone’s spot.’ I said to Shawn, ‘I want to work with Jaida because I see something in her that is so special.’ She’s got this dog in her that I’m like- I’ve got to test the Nattie character out against her. I feel like, and I’ve said this before, I feel like she’s the female Jacob Fatu. She’s got this edge about her that’s very different from the other girls, and that’s not me saying anything negative about any of the other girls because I loved the match I had with Kendal, I loved the match I had with Thea Hail, and I love the work I’ve done in NXT.”

Nattie is currently scheduled to face off against Parker in a Submission match at NXT Heatwave 2026 on August 30 in Edinburg, Texas.
