Major Update On Nikki Bella’s WWE Future

Nikki Bella WWE Smile

There is more information available on what’s happening with Nikki Bella and her future in WWE.

Nikki Bella has competed in five matches since the battle royal at Evolution this past July, but she has also been out of the ring for the past month.

After failing in her attempt to take the Women’s Intercontinental Title from Becky Lynch at Clash in Paris, Nikki Bella also lost to Asuka on the September 8th edition of Raw.

Regarding Nikki’s future, Sean Ross Sapp reports in the Fightful Select Answers Q&A that the WWE Hall of Famer isn’t done with her comeback while noting that Nikki would be around “here and there.”

Since there were no plans for Nikki at Crown Jewel in Australia, there was no need to use her on television before that. Sapp added that he heard WWE expects to be involved for a while, although no specific dates were given.

It was also mentioned by Sapp that WWE “also expected Trish to pop up more than she did this year,” referring to WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus, who started in WWE 25 years ago. Trish’s mother recently passed away after a battle with cancer, so that is likely a big reason why she has been away.

Nikki Bella Is Back In WWE To Help Out

Regarding her WWE in-ring return, Nikki Bella has stated that she’s there to be part of the team and help out the roster as best she can.

“I’m really here to give my equity to others. I know I’m not gonna be here forever. Maybe that’s only gonna be a year, maybe it’s gonna be a few months, who knows? But I really just wanted to help out, and I wanted to just earn my spot again.”

The 41-year-old single mother made it clear she wasn’t there to take spots.

“Why can’t women my age do it too? Why does it always have to be for one big PLE? We come in for a few weeks and then we’re gone. Why can’t we come in for a while and see how I can hang with the younger era? I’m not here to take spots, I’m here for anything to help the people that we need to make.”

Regarding a potential return of The Bella Twins, Nikki Bella confirmed that she’s still working on a return for her sister Brie, but that hasn’t happened yet.
