Nikki Bella Denies Reports of Big WrestleMania Return


  • This article contains potential WrestleMania spoiler.

Nikki Bella says she is not missing WrestleMania.

The status of the former Divas Champion has been in question since she suffered a leg injury during a tag team match against Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss on SmackDown last month.

It was then reported on Friday that Bella will indeed be missing her women's tag title match at the Show of Shows this year because of her injury. The report also claimed that a returning Paige will be replacing the Hall of Famer in the bout at the PPV event.

Nikki Bella Says She Is Still In It

The Bella Twins stopped to talk to Big E on the Hall of Fame red carpet. E asked Nikki Bella about her health, noting that she was still wearing a walking boot.

The WWE veteran claimed that it was just to get some extra rest before she goes after the women's tag team titles tomorrow. The comment prompted Big E to ask if tomorrow was still on, to which Nikki said that she will never leave Brie's side:

Oh, yeah, I'm there, I'm here. I would never leave Brie's side ever. I'm still in it, I'm still there tomorrow and we're gonna go win those tag titles.

WWE is bound to keep the return a surprise if Nikki is indeed going to miss the match. Based on her comments, it seems likely that Bella will still be at ringside for her sister, even if she doesn't wrestle at the show.
