Nikki Bella revealed that an AEW star was her trainer ahead of her WWE comeback.

The Fearless One suffered an ankle injury ahead of WrestleMania 42, which forced her to miss the Show of Shows. She was then replaced by a returning Paige, who teamed up with Brie Bella to win the Women’s Tag Team Championship.

Earlier this month, Paige and Brie lost the title to Fatal Influence at Saturday Night’s Main Event. Their rivalry, however, continued as Brie defeated Lainey Reid last Friday on SmackDown.

After the match, Fatal Influence ambushed the former Women’s Tag Team Champions before Nikki Bella made a surprise return to save them. Nikki then announced that she, Brie, and Paige will face Jacy Jayne’s faction in a six-woman tag team match at SummerSlam.
