Both true, depending on how you define them. Viruses tend to jump to humans from animals when living in close proximity. The wet market origin is the most likely theory regarding the origin, which makes it both man made and natural, along with so many other diseases affecting humans throughout history.
Sure, the wet market origin hasn’t (and cannot) be 100% proven, but using this to speculate that this means that a biolab origin is just as plausible is both dangerous and dumb.
Even the biolab one could be both natural and man made: the virus was found and isolated by biologists studying local bat populations. They then failed to contain it properly (remember how surprised everyone was when they realized how contagious it was over the air?) and it started spreading.
