Brie Bella is eager to get back on WWE television and wrestle before WrestleMania 42, but she admits the booking hasn't come as quickly as she anticipated.
Speaking on An Unlikely Affair, Brie opened up about the situation in her own words:
It's one of those crazy things… I came back at the end of January and I just assumed, oh, you're gonna have me back every Monday. But they're like, 'Okay, we'll let you know when you're needed back in the story.' And I'm like, it's been five weeks.
Brie made her surprise return at the 2026 Royal Rumble in Saudi Arabia, entering at number 29 after Nikki entered at number 25.
The two reunited on the Raw after the event to cut a promo announcing their pursuit of the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships — the one major title the duo has never won.?
With WrestleMania 42 on the horizon, Brie made clear how much is at stake for her and her sister:
I'm hoping we're back there soon. I would love to be able to wrestle before WrestleMania. I do because the titles are on the line and they will be at WrestleMania. Nikki and I both want to prove that we can hang with this division and that we deserve to be in that WrestleMania match to go for the titles. They just need to give me the time. I gotta get in there.
With WrestleMania less than a month away, there's not much time to waste to get the Bellas positioned for something meaningful.
