From: Russia
Nickname: “The Crush”

Of all the wrestlers in the National Wrestling Alliance, few have a more devoted following than Natalia Markova!

Over the last two years, “The Crush” has been one of the NWA’s most consistent competitors — and persistent challengers. Throughout Kamille’s historic championship reign, Markova received repeated opportunities at the title.

The Russian gave “The Brickhouse” all she could handle, including an anything-goes battle at NWA 75. Still, the challenger consistently came up short.

More recently, Natalia has turned her attention to tag team action. Whether with Bryan Idol as “Looks That Kill” or Taylor Rising as “Markova Rising,” the future is ripe for “The Crush.”
