Former Divas Champion Natalya discusses the possibility of becoming a producer of WWE someday
Natalya was the recent guest on the Wilde On podcast, where he spoke about the possibility of becoming a producer.
Former Divas Champion said that she doesn’t see herself as a producer. She mentioned helping others but loved to be in front of the camera. Natalya said that she doesn’t have the patience to be a producer.
“For me, I don’t see myself being a producer per se. I’m also one of those types of people that never say never,” Natalya said. I love helping people, but I also love being in front of the camera. I love speaking, I love hosting things, I loved being on Total Divas, which, you know, was so fun. I’d still love to do something like that, do reality TV. My sister and I do a fun YouTube show. I’m not the greatest at holding the candle for someone else and then not being in front of the camera. I’m just not there yet in my career. I’m not really sure if I have the patience to be a producer. I’m too selfish to be a producer.” (H/T Wrestling Inc.)
Natalya has been with WWE for over a decade now. She has wrestled more matches than any other woman in WWE history. Her husband, TJ Wilson, already works as a producer.
During the interview, she mentioned how producers don’t get the credit they deserve. Natalya has some special recognition for General Manager Adam Pearce. She said he does things backstage that nobody sees and talked about the difficulties of being a producer.
“Our producers in WWE, they’re so unsung. They don’t always get the credit they deserve. You see someone like Adam Pearce, he’s a GM on the show, but he also handles a lot of things backstage that nobody even notices. He trains people during the week. He works RAW. He works SmackDown. A lot of our producers are on the road six days a week. It’s really, really challenging and really hard because they don’t always get an action figure or get to be in a video game. They don’t always get that spotlight.
