Nikki Bella Distances Herself From WWE Speculation
Nikki Bella has clarified past comments that were misconstrued by the public.
WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella was back in a WWE ring in the 2025 Women’s Royal Rumble match. After entering the Rumble in the coveted 30th spot, Nikki made it to the final four before being eliminated.
Since her return to the ring, Nikki has been open about coming back and recently spoke about gaining muscle.
“I’ve been slowly getting back into lifting heavier to prep for this comeback. I told myself that exactly, a little bit at a time, you’re not gonna get super strong overnight.
“I texted my sister and my mom last week like, ‘I went up 15 pounds!’ I was so happy, and I didn’t even realize but I was just doing a little bit at a time, then all of a sudden, here I am.”
Nikki Bella also made past comments confirming that WWE was bringing back the Evolution PLE for a summer show. Although that was reported several times this year, WWE has yet to make it official.
Movie Role Set For Nikki Bella
When Nikki Bella said in the past that there would be a “really big announcement” about something in July, it turns out she was talking about a movie, not the WWE Evolution PLE. Nikki clarified what she meant on her Nikki & Brie podcast that she does with sister Brie Garcia (Brie Bella).
“I did not confirm the Evolution pay-per-view. The thing I was saying that I was going to be part of in July — I just need to kill this because I see it everywhere. I’m in a movie. I can’t announce it yet but it’s a movie that I’m in in July.
I didn’t want to say the movie part, but now I feel like I have to say it because everyone thinks I’m confirming Evolution.”
Even though she didn’t specifically say what movie it is, Nikki said it was a “great character” that was “a lot of fun to play.”
The former WWE Divas Champion Nikki Bella was also in the news recently when it was revealed how much she has to pay her ex-husband Artem as part of their divorce settlement.
