This was Natalya's first appearance on WWE television since her father died on Monday at the age of 63. 

Per ESPN.com's Tim Fiorvanti, Jim died as a result of an injury he suffered after falling at his home. 

Jim had two different stints working for WWE from 1985 to '92 and 1994 to '97. Along with Bret Hart in the Hart Foundation, he was a two-time WWE tag team champion. 

Natalya was ringside to watch Ronda Rousey defeat Alexa Bliss for the WWE Raw Women's Championship.
