WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella recently made her long-awaited return.
Following her last appearance at Royal Rumble 2025, Nikki Bella made her much-awaited return earlier this week on the 9th June edition of Raw. However, she would be cut short by Liv Morgan during her Evolution 2 promo. While the two initially engaged in a verbal exchange, it soon turned into a short brawl.
While Nikki Bella is now expected to pair up with her sister Brie Bella and face Liv Morgan and another member of Judgment Day, another WWE veteran shared an unknown incident during Bella’s return. Natalya, speaking to the Toronto Sun, revealed that Bella rejected the promotion’s offer of a private locker room, preferring to share one with the rest of the roster.
“So yesterday, in the locker room, they wanted to get Nikki her own locker room. They were like, we’re going to get Nikki Bella her own room, she’s going to have her own space, we’ll put a fruit tray in there and all this stuff that she wanted. She goes, ‘No. I don’t want to change in my own locker room.’
This is what I love about Nikki, she goes, ‘I want to change with the rest of the girls.’ She’s like, ‘I want to be in the locker room with the rest of the girls because that’s the most special place to be. It’s about being with the girls.’ I love that. So she was in the locker room with us, it’s a very sacred place.”
She further continued,
“It was so fun because she was in the locker room. The girls just loved seeing her. It was just like she was right back in the groove, like she hadn’t missed a beat. So, that’s the thing that people don’t see behind the scenes of what we do, it’s a sisterhood.
We don’t all have to love each other, we don’t all have to get along 24/7, but at the end of the day, we’re a group of women that really love and respect each other and Nikki understood that. She didn’t want her own room, she wanted to be with us. I love that and I made sure that she looked perfect before she went out.”
