It’s a big day for Natalya (you’ll see why when we post SmackDown! media) and it’s just been made a little more special! Natalya and Victoria’s friendship is once again featured in Diva Dish at WWE.com… this time with pictures!
Victoria + Natalya = BBF 4-Ever
Two of SmackDown’s most devious Divas seem to be joined at the hip lately. Whether it’s in the ring, in the Divas’ locker room or out on the town, Victoria and Natalya are inseparable. They’ve even been spotted sporting custom-made, matching “Best Friends” T-shirts and necklaces. Diva Dish recently sat down for a chat (or should we say ego-fest?) with the BFFs.
“I went shopping today. I got us matching necklaces. We had special custom T-shirts made that say ‘Best Friends’ and they’re a split heart, just like the necklace,” Victoria told Diva Dish.
“You went all out and it was such a surprise because May 27 was my birthday,” Natalya chimed in. “I came into the building and this little one over here had a package waiting for me. She went out and got the shirts, and had them custom made for me. I thought I was going to cry, but you know, being third-generation, we don’t cry.”
“We don’t cry! There’s no crying in wrestling!” Victoria replied.
“You can give me a high-five on that one, girlfriend!” Natalya said, as the duo erupted in laughter.
Victoria said she’s grown so close to Natalya since she became a Diva, they act like sisters. And the Divas aren’t joking when they say they finish each other’s sentences.
“One thing I have to say, and I believe this in my heart of hearts, is that what you have that I was most attracted to, is that you’re violent and original,” Natalya said to Victoria. “And for me it’s like, there is not another woman who I can find who can get on my level to be violent and original. She brings it. Every single night there’s just this energy and I feed off it.”
“We’re very lucky because I feed off her, because she’s very talented. You’re very original, too. I’ve learned wrestling skills from you. Your confidence level is amazing out there,” Victoria told her best bud.
“You are amazing,” Natalya said.
“You are amazing,” Victoria responded.
“We are — ” Natalya started.
“Amazing!” Victoria finished.
When Diva Dish informed the pals they were two of the most downloaded Divas on WWE.com in recent weeks, Victoria admitted she was a little bit surprised.
“I’m so used to people downloading those little skinny girls, like Kelly Kelly and Michelle – the cookie-cutter blonds. Now it shows we’re being appreciated as athletes with wrestling abilities – that we can back up what we do,” Victoria said.
But Natalya wasn’t shocked she and her best friend are making waves online.
“Naturally, being the first third-generation Diva in WWE, it just felt right when I heard I was one of the most downloaded Divas,” Natalya said.
“People want to know what I’m up to, what I’m wearing, what I’m talking about, what we’re doing, what we’ve been doing – they just want to see Natalya and Victoria. She doesn’t give herself enough credit, but this woman is amazing. I know it’s not Valentine’s Day, but I wouldn’t be able to do it without you,” Natalya said, looking at her friend.
“Awwww. You give me a hug. Come here, BFF!” Victoria said, embracing her friend and then continuing: “We have good chemistry in the ring and outside the ring. I think it shows in our performance. We put our hearts and souls into every single match. We try to be the best, because you know what?”
“When you mess with the best, you go down with the rest. Yeah, baby!” the two said in unison.
