Natalya earned the number 30 spot in tomorrow's Women's Royal Rumble match during tonight's WWE Backstage special on FS1, defeating Tamina.
Natalya vs. Tamina
The competitors locked up with Tamona backing Natalya into the ropes but breaking clean. Natalya attempted a waistlock takedown but Tamina's power was too strong. Tamina drilled her with a kick to the mid-section as she advanced and worked over the Canadian star's arm. Natalya slipped out but was snapped back down to the mat by her hair.
Tamina worked over Natalya but was unable to score the three count. Tamina continued to focus her attack on Natalya's arm. Natalya fought to her feet but was suplexed down for another two count. Natalya used an inside cradle to surprise Tamina for a two count but was cut off and nailed with an elbow. Tamina forced her against the ropes to continue wearing Natalya down.
Natalya rolled through a pinfall attempt and attempted to go for a Sharpshooter but was kicked off. Tamina missed a charge in the corner and was rolled up for the pin.
Your winner, Natalya!
Natalya will be the final entrant tomorrow.
