Rikishi feels that Naomi, when she does plan to leave WWE, should face and get one over an icon of the business to cement her legacy.
“It’s a difficult pick for me because I can go back to the Attitude Era. I would like to see her go out beating an icon of the business. For me, that just kind of puts the tag on everything. People in her era — been there, done that. She’s mixed it up with a lot of the new generation. But I would like to see her go back and be able to work with somebody back that’s an icon in this industry and would bring even the best out of her. How cool is that to be able to, if you’re wrestling somebody that you looked up to back in the day?”
He listed a few names from the past, stars who wrestled in the Attitude Era, as potential opponents for the WWE Women’s World Champion.
“I think her and Jazz would have one hell of a match. Miss Jackie [Jacqueline]. I think they would [be good opponents] — you know, Ivory. We just had Trish Stratus.”
Of the names that he listed, only Trish Stratus has been active in recent years, featuring at Evolution recently. Jacqueline hasn’t wrestled since 2018, while Jazz last featured in WWE back in 2006 although she is still active.
