Natalya Skyler (born 1987), is retired Canadian-born professional wrestler and manager formerly signed to Premium Championship Wrestling under the ring name Talia Skye where she is the manager of Da Xtreme Dynasty. She previously was signed to WWE Revolution and then for Premium Womens Wrestling where she was the inaugural PWW Womens Champion, as well as Libertarian Wrestling. During her run in the first era of PCW, Skylar was one of the few women's wrestlers to appear on both Rapture and Knockout shows (only Danielle Lopez and Heather Monroe did this on a regular basis). She also worked for WWE Legacy™ in its DIVAS Brand. Skylar is one of the few Divas in WWE Legacy's history to hold the Unified Divas Championship, and is the only woman to hold the PCW Womens Championship while also being a one time PCW Brawl Champion. She has never been pinned in Legacy.
Personal life[]
Natalya Skylar was born in Scarborough, Ontario, Canada. She was born into a rich family, her mother running a highly successful fashion magazine. Due to this she was spoiled as a child, always getting the latest clothes. She began watching wrestling at the age of 14, and for the first time, fell in love with something other than herself.
At the age of 18 she began to train with Lance Storm. Once finishing training with Lance, she went to Japan and Mexico for a year at a time to train in other styles. Once finishing in Japan, she returned to Ontario and instantly went into the independent companies. Skylar was easily hated and became a major heel in the independent circuit. Eventually after 2 years of dominating the independent women's divisions she decided it was time to make an impact in a major federation.
It was in the independent scene where she met her four best friends, Jane Isis, Nathan and Aaron Warrens and Damon Wilson. They five formed an alliance backstage that allowed them to take over the 'indies' in secret. After meeting these four, Skylar began to change her ways, donating to groups such as PFLAG Canada and the World Wildlife Fund. She donates thousands upon thousands annually. She dated fellow wrestler "Sinister" Chris Mitchel who owns a wrestling gym. The two ended their relationship after Chris became furious at Talia's Mafia gimmick. Skylar dated fellow Generation Xtreme/Weapon X stablemate, tag team wrestling legend, J.T. Banks, who also competed alongside her in Libertarian Wrestling. Little is known about the break up, and it is not known if she and J.T. are on good terms. Talia dated Tylor Riott, her former manager. The two split up, but remain good friends. In December 2012, it was confirmed that Skylar and Banks began dating again. The two are now engaged.
Professional Wrestling Career[]
World Wrestling Entertainment: Legacy™ (August 2009 - April 2011)[]
Dominant Beginning[]
Skylar made her debut in WWE:Legacy under her ring name Talia Skye, on the company's rookie show FCW's second episode teaming with Yoshi Tatsu to defeat Tyson Wind and Piper Crystal. The following week Talia defeated Rosa Mendez. She repeated this performance the next week rolling up Rosa Mendez with a small package. After seeing how dominant she was, Talia was immediately moved up to the main roster.
Going to the Extreme[]
Talia soon made her debut with then boyfriend Drew McIntyre when Drew faced off against, and defeated Goldust. Although she didn't have much to do with the match, she slapped the Bizarre One after the match for good measure. This was repeated several weeks later when Drew once again defeated Goldust. Weeks later Talia made her in ring debut pinning Melina. The next week Talia helped Drew McIntyre defeat Zack Blaze, tripping Zack, allowing Drew to hit the Scot Drop. Later that night she made her ECW in-ring debut against a local competitor, whom she dominated, and won with Re-Talia-Tion, a Michinoku Driver.
The Next Generation[]

After more victories on Superstars, Talia earned a Unified Divas Championship match and soon joined the new ECW stable, Generation Next alongsaide Drew McIntyre, Zack Blaze and Shaemus. At Survivor Series Talia continued her win streak, defeating Amber Wattkins to become the new Unified Divas Champion. Over the next couple of weeks Talia defeated Maria, and Amber Wattkins, before destroying Kelly Kelly at Wildcard to retain her title. After the win, a video package aired threatening Talia that her Title reign would end soon. Drew was fired due to the Wilcdard match, leaving Talia without her boyfriend. The ECW after Wildcard she defeated Maria again, and again the video package aired. The following week Talia and Sheamus defeated Shelton Benjamin and Amber Wattkins, and the video aired again. On Smackdown Talia defeated Kelly Kelly with Re-Talia-tion, and then told the Diva behind these videos that she isn't intimidated. Another video aired stating she would reveal herself soon. Weeks later on ECW Talia attacked a returning Victoria. Talia went on to retain her title against Victoria at the Royal Rumble. On the first ECW of February Talia Skye and Ezekiel Jackson lost to Leon Lonewolf and Victoria, when Leon made Ezekiel tap out. Though they lost the match Talia is still technically undefeated, having never been pinned or made submit. Talia defeated Victoria again at No Way Out. She is presently in a feud with fellow Canadian Natalya Neidhart. They battled at the grandest stage of them all, Wrestlemania, where Talia lost her title by submission to Natalya.
DIVAS[]
As of April WWE moved all WWE Divas to their own brand, with their own bi-weekly show, DIVAS. Talia Skye participated in the main event of the first episode. She cashed in her re-match clause against Natalya for the Unified Divas Championship. She won, but due to the DQ victory, did not regain the title, as a mysterious woman attacked her. WWE Legacy would soon go on hiatus, effectively ending the DIVAS program.
Premium Championship Wrestling (August 2010 - June 2011)[]
Feuding with Heather Monroe and Danielle Lopez[]

The Queen of Women's Wrestling is coming to PCW
Natalia recently signed a contract with Premium Championship Wrestling under her ring name Talia Skye. She has yet to debut, but was given a welcome of sorts by "The Lethal Latina" Danielle Lopez on Lopez's video blog. Talia responded by telling Danielle "the Queen of Women's Wrestling is coming for her throne. It's time people get a glimpse of True Beauty." At the recent PCW Pay Per View Anarchy, Talia Skye made her first appearance at a PCW show by interfering in the match between Heather Monroe and Bob Osbourne, causing Heather to win via Disqualification bye repeatedly hitting her with a steel chair. The Rapture following Anarchy, Talia attacked Heather again, but her foe gained the upperhand. The next Rapture Talia cost Heather Monroe her match against Robert Gilmour. The last Rapture before Pyramid Battle, Talia made her in ring debut in a losing effort against Heather Monroe, which was declared by Danielle Lopez " This could possibly be the match of the year." Talia went on hiatus for several months. She made her return a week before the Asylum of Slaughter PPV, on an episode of Rapture. She came out and hit Jade Cao with a DDG (Hairflip/Snap Butterfly DDT), helping Aaron Warrens gain the victory. This cemented her position in the new PCW stable, The Deadly Sins. Talia (Greed) is alongside long time friends Nathan (Pride) and Aaron (Envy) Warrens, and new friend Damon Wilson (Lust).
Face Turn and Generation Next[]
Talia was set to face Danielle Lopez at the final PCW PPV of 2010, Battle Finale II. The match took place and has been called the greatest match in women's wrestling history. Danielle Lopez ended up getting the victory, but celebrated with Talia Skye holding twin PCW Unofficial Women's Championships. After the match Talia announced the Deadly Sins new direction as Generation Next, turning them face. Later that night Talia ran out during a title match between Israel Steele and Draven Logan Kennedy when DLK's partner-in-crime Alice attempted to cost Israel the match and title. She attacked Alice and prevented Draven from gaining the victory.

Talia Skye before a match up for Premium Womens Wrestling
Here to Stay was a big night for Talia. Alongside Danielle Lopez, she welcomed long time rival Heather Monroe to the Black Rose Mafia. Soon after Talia rushed out to make the save for Alexis Landry and Sunny Storm, whom were on the receiving end of an attack by Christina Pérez and Ivette Hernandez. After making the save Talia attacked Sunny Storm before stating she would never be Mafia material. In the Main Event Talia, accompanied by her boyfriend J.T. Banks and his partner Kevin Styles, faced Hikari Richards, joined by Chris and Alex Richards, for Talia's PWW Women's Championship. After interference by the Richards Brothers caused both the Richards and The Xtreme Killah's to be thrown from ringside, Terry Richards took advantage of a knocked out ref and slammed Talia with a steel chair. He gave the chair to Hikari, who didn't know if she should use it or not, meanwhile Damon Warrens, PWW commentator and PCW Hall of Famer ran to the ring and brawled with Terry. Hikari decided to toss the chair to ringside and turned in time to receive a Botox Injection bicycle kick from Talia, which gave the win to Talia. Talia and her fellow Mafia members brawled with Toxic, saving their teammate Heather Monroe from a post match attack on SNK IV. On the same episode Talia taught her protege Alexis Landry how to cut a promo and trash talk. On episode V Talia helped Alexis choose a signature weapon, a can of hairspray. This came into play later in the night when Talia faced Toxic's Alisyn in singles competition. Alexis Landry sprayed Alisyn in the face with the hairspray, which Talia took advantage of with a Botox Injection, gaining the victory. Talia then challenged Terry and Hikari Richards to an intergender tag team match with PWW Commentator Damon Warrens as her partner for the next show.
