Nikki Bella just gave Indianapolis a huge surprise, making her long-awaited return to WWE at the Royal Rumble.
A Grand Entrance at Number 30
One-half of the Bella Twins made a dramatic entrance, appearing as the 30th entrant in the women’s match—sending the crowd into an absolute frenzy when her iconic theme song hit the speakers.
Bella rocked an all-red two-piece outfit and a ball cap, proudly displaying her “Fearless” logo across her chest.
No Rust, Just Strength
Despite her time away from the ring, Bella showed no signs of slowing down—even dropping to the mat for push-ups mid-match to prove her dominance. However, her time in the match was cut short when Nia Jax eliminated her as the 27th wrestler out.
Charlotte Flair Secures WrestleMania Spot
While Bella’s return electrified fans, it was Charlotte Flair who ultimately claimed victory, earning her spot at WrestleMania in Las Vegas.
Talks of a WWE Comeback?
Just last week, reports surfaced that WWE and Bella had begun discussions about a potential return following her surprise appearance at “Monday Night Raw” in L.A. The moment created a buzz both in the arena and across social media.
First Match Since 2022
This Royal Rumble marked Bella’s first in-ring appearance since 2022, when she last competed at the same event.
One Night Only or a Full Return?
Whether this was just a one-time return or the start of something bigger remains to be seen—but either way, fans were thrilled to see Bella back in action after a whirlwind 2024, which included a high-profile divorce following an alleged domestic dispute.
