Nikki Bella is fully embracing her return to the WWE ring, driven by a renewed motivation, sharp focus, and a specific goal of challenging her own in-ring style. The WWE Hall of Famer made her official in-ring comeback on the October 27th episode of Monday Night Raw, where she competed in a one-on-one match against Roxanne Perez. Despite Bella’s strong showing, the Raw newcomer Roxanne Perez managed to secure the victory, aided by interference from her Judgment Day ally, Raquel Rodriguez. The post-match situation escalated, leading to a surprise confrontation that saw Women’s World Champion Stephanie Vaquer come to Bella’s aid, evening the odds. During the most recent episode of The Nikki & Brie Show, Bella reflected on her performance and discussed her mindset. She shared that she has been actively seeking feedback from her sister, Brie Bella, and her brother-in-law, Bryan Danielson, as she continues to work on improving and adapting to the current ring style. “It felt great,” Nikki said of her Raw match. “What I love is every time I go out there, I push harder. I’m learning more about myself in this era and I sit and watch and I get feedback from like you and Bryan, from myself, and I know what I need to do next and how I need to improve even more. I was so proud of Monday and I got a lot of great feedback and your girl was trending number one.” Bella elaborated on her determination to evolve beyond her established comfort zone and enhance her move-set. “There’s just a lot of moments for me where I just continue to push myself out of my comfort zone,” she added. “I wanted to bring in more moves and challenge myself like I used to do. I’m going against somebody with a 20 year difference, you know?” More news: WWE Superstar Announces Retirement Match Wrestlers fight during a show at the AccorHotels Arena in Paris, as part of the WrestleMania Revenge Tour, the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) European tour.
