“I know at one point, I will be going back to WWE to do something. I don’t know when, I don’t know the story, but it’s going to happen. Watching that [movie], it made me feel like what I did when I broke my neck. I had moments of, ‘No, this isn’t going to be career ending, I’m going to come back,” noted Nikki Bella (quotes courtesy Fightful)
Nikki Bella was the final entrant of the women’s Royal Rumble 2025, arriving at number 30 in an attempt to seize a Wrestlemania moment. She was among the final four but was eventually eliminated by Nia Jax. Another returnee of the match, Charlotte Flair emerged to be the winner, last eliminating Roxanne Perez.
Many believed that Nikki Bella might make uninterrupted appearances on WWE programming following the Rumble appearance but she took it slow on getting involved in the comeback process.
