Nattie Neidhart recently appeared on The Ariel Helwani Show. She was on the show to talk about her upcoming book, “The Last Hart Beating,” available at this link for pre-order.
Among other topics, she talked about being booked for the the upcoming Bloodsport show and the NWA Crockett Cup:
“I very much made this happen. Josh Barnett is a really good friend of mine and somebody that I deeply respect. I reached out to Josh, and I was like, ‘Hey, you’re going to be here during WrestleMania week. I would love to do what Shayna did last year.’ I told Josh and Triple H, I said, ‘I would love to work in that space and to show people what I can do’, because I’ve trained with Josh before. It is very reminiscent of the dungeon style, and, of course, where my family has come from. Triple H and Josh were both super supportive of it. It’s one thing for me to just jump back into the division and do something. It’s another thing for me to go outside of the division, like literally run a gauntlet on my career and go, hey, either I’m going to prove everybody wrong or I’m going to prove myself right that I really am one of the greatest women wrestlers in the entire world, and I’m screaming for change. That’s why I reached out to Josh and why I reached out to Billy Corgan.”
