WWE stars praise Natalya and TJ Wilson’s The Dungeon 2.0 for sharpening in-ring skills
Natalya shared a new video on X showcasing training sessions at The Dungeon 2.0, the renovated school she runs with TJ Wilson, calling the project a continuation of her grandfather’s “heart and grit” approach to building resilient performers. The clip underscores their mission to pass on old-school fundamentals to a new generation, with Natalya reiterating the facility is more than a gym—it’s a “love letter to wrestling.”
Several WWE names weigh in on the impact: Liv Morgan credits weekly three-hour sessions for boosting her confidence and performance, Ilja Dragunov used the Dungeon to prep his comeback after an ACL tear, Jacob Fatu praises TJ’s coaching and Natalya’s no-nonsense push, and B-Fab highlights the space as a creative canvas to experiment and build fundamentals. The Dungeon’s influence extends beyond current stars—John Cena visited last year to share industry wisdom—cementing its role as a training hub for talent across promotions.
