WWE Star Natalya Neidhart Sizzles In Swimsuit Photo

WWE superstar Natalya Neidhart is turning up the heat just in time for Memorial Day weekend.

Nattie, the daughter of Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart, signed with the WWE in 2007. She previously had stints with Ohio Valley Wrestling and Florida Championship Wrestling. It took years for her to have a breakthrough moment, but she eventually captured both the Divas Championship and SmackDown Women's Championship.

"The unforgiving training ground that churned out mat greats like Brian Pillman and Nattie's husband, Tyson Kidd, molded The Queen of Harts into one of WWE's most dangerous submission grapplers. She also learned from her uncle Bret "Hit Man" Hart by driving many of her opponents to tap via the family Sharpshooter," her bio for the WWE states. "Her presence out of the ring is just as incredible: Starring on E!'s Total Divas reality series and working as an active supporter of WWE and The Creative Coalition's Be a STAR Alliance, Make-A-Wish, Susan G. Komen and the WrestleMania Reading Challenge."

Although she's known for her work in the ring, Natalya went viral this week for sharing a swimsuit photo online.

"Stunning," one person commented.

"Gorgeous Nattie," a second person wrote.

"You look incredible," an Instagram user said.

Pushing for a change to the women's division.

Natalya, a third-generation WWE superstar, is hoping a women's gauntlet match is eventually added to the rotation.

"Three years in a row, I went to Vince (McMahon) and said, ‘I want to do a women's gauntlet match. The winner of the gauntlet match gets to face the tag team champions the next night. I want to do a women's fatal four-way where it's four tag teams fighting for the title.' I just want to get more women on the show all the time," Natalya said, via Fightful.

For now, the WWE's creative team isn't willing to grant Natalya's wish.

Since Natalys is currently assigned to the "Raw" brand, fans will have to wait a few days to see her back in action.
