Nikki Bella Makes Heartbreaking Confession About WWE Return

WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella has admitted to what she’s struggled with following her return to the ring.

2025 has seen the rebirth of Nikki Bella in WWE as she returns to the ring on a more regular basis. Bella challenged Stephanie Vaquer for the Women’s World Championship at Survivor Series, but the Chilean champion won out to retain her gold.

Following that, Bella tried to confront Vaquer again, but ended up being knocked aside by Raquel Rodriguez, who has her own designs on Vaquer’s title.

Nikki Bella Struggles With Body Issues

Speaking on The Nikki & Brie Show, Nikki Bella discussed what she was really focusing on when watching back the attack from Rodriguez:

Hell of a bump, little jiggle jiggle. You know what made me proud of that moment? Seeing it back, you really have to see my glutes firing up, and it just shows how much squatting and deadlifting you and I have been doing. The glutes are really performing and shaping up.

Bella then admitted that she struggles with looking at one part of her body on camera:

But I will admit I body-shame myself about my stomach, and all the moms are with me on this. It’s hard because I’m trying to fix parts about myself that can’t be fixed with exercise. It’s just hard seeing yourself on TV after having a child.

I’m allowed to feel a certain way. Look, I have a healthy, amazing little boy, and that’s what matters. There are just times I’m like, ‘Ooooh, should I?’ I’m allowed to feel bad about myself if I want. I’m working hard on the parts I want to fix.

Nikki Bella recently revealed the truth about her love life after rumours emerged that she was dating a fellow WWE Superstar.
