Natalya: Jaida Parker Is WWE’s Female Jacob Fatu

Natalya has likened the WWE NXT star to a female version of Jacob Fatu.
Since making her televised debut in 2023, Jaida Parker has been popular among NXT fans. The 27-year-old has an unmistakable charisma which commands attention when she appears on-screen. In fact, it’s this unique edge to how she presents herself that has led Natalya to draw comparisons between Parker and a current main roster star.
While discussing her time in NXT on Busted Open Radio, Natalya revealed that Jaida Parker reminds her of Jacob Fatu.
“She’s got this dog in her that I’m like, I’ve got to test the Nattie character out against her. I feel like she’s the female kind of Jacob Fatu. She’s just got this edge about her that is very very different from the other girls, and that’s not me saying anything negative about any of the other girls because I loved the match I had with Kendal [Grey]. I loved the match I had with Thea Hail, and I love the work I’ve done in NXT. But I see something so different in Jaida that I have not seen in a woman in, I mean, I think of dog, I think of Rhea Ripley. I think of dog, I think of Liv Morgan. I think of dog, I think of the toughest, baddest ass women in the industry. And I see that in Jaida.”

Nattie and Jaida Parker have clashed twice on NXT this year, trading wins and current sharing a 1-1 record against each other. While Parker is yet to win a championship in WWE, she seems primed for success in the future.
In the early days of her NXT career, Jaida was partnered with Bronco Nima and Lucien Price as part of OTM. With the pair having made their RAW debut this week alongside Royce Keys, many will be wondering whether Jaida Parker could soon make her own move to the main roster. Whether that happens, though, remains to be seen.
