Natalya wore a new, black and red wrestling gear on RAW and revealed former Divas of Doom member as her inspiration
Natalya and Tamina took on Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler in a bid to defend their WWE women’s tag team championship on RAW earlier this week.
And Natalya was seen sporting new wrestling gear for the special match, which they ultimately went on to win. It was a red and black attire akin to one worn by Beth Phoenix years back.
And fans were quick to note this. Phoenix and Natalya were, of course, ‘The Divas of Doom’ in 2011 where they enjoyed a short but memorable run together as ‘anti-Divas’.
One fan posted a photo of Natalya’s new outfit alongside Phoenix’s outfit worn in the 1-on-1 handicap match vs LayCool on the 14th May 2010 episode of RAW.
To this, Natalya replied by revealing that her outfit was inspired by ‘Beth The Glamazon’, her former tag team partner.

In the image above, Phoenix wore that outfit just a few months before she aligned with former Hart Dynasty member, Natalya.
The two set their sights on the tag team title, but it never happened, and the team split in 2012 when Phoenix announced her retirement from pro wrestling.
After her Hall of Fame induction in 2017 by Natalya and a 2018 Royal Rumble appearance, Phoenix came back from retirement to team up with Natalya again.
The ‘Divas of Doom’ nickname was dropped following the women’s revolution and the two competed in a fatal 4-way at WrestleMania 35 for the tag team title.
The IIconics had their iconic moment in that match when they emerged as the winners, trumping The Boss ‘N’ Hug Connection, Phoenix and Natalya, and Jax and Tamina.
Their reunion was ended after the 2020 Royal Rumble where Phoenix eliminated Natalya.
