Natalya dedicates her match to the late, great Owen Hart.

On the May 6 episode of WWE RAW, Natalya will face IYO SKY in a first-round match in the Queen of the Ring tournament.

Ahead of the bout, Natalya took to Twitter to share her thoughts. She wrote that facing SKY had been a dream match of hers since IYO came to WWE. The veteran wrote that she was dedicating the match to her favorite King of the Ring, Owen Hart, on the eve of his birthday.
