Third-generation wrestler Natalya has just released her memoir, “The Last Hart Beating” which chronicles her resilient journey in the business. Yet, while the book has been getting rave reviews many have wondered why The Rock wrote the foreword rather than a member of her family like Bret Hart.
And now while appearing on The Nikki & Brie Show, Natalya has explained she purposely made this decision due to not wanting to “lean” on family members. Additionally she noted how her background is similar to The Rock’s, giving him a unique insight.
43-year-old Natalya was born into the legendary Hart wrestling, and after working as a ring announcer began training at the infamous Hart Dungeon. From there she honed her skills in a version of Stampede Wrestling, going on to sign with WWE in 2007. Still, despite not always pushed as a huge star, she has remained highly respected by both fans and her peers, and looks set to join her father Jim Neidhart in the WWE Hall of Fame sooner rather than later.
