Shortly after updates about Nikki Bella’s involvement in Evolution II were released, the WWE Hall of Fame seemed to clarify things for fans. On Sunday, Bella participated in the Evolution II Battle Royale for the No. 1 contender spot, aiming to show the WWE Universe that she still has what it takes.
Bella appeared in video segments on Monday’s “WWE RAW,” announcing her entry into the Evolution II Battle Royale. She recapped her confrontation with Liv Morgan, whose attack interrupted Bella’s first WWE return on June 9th. Bella cited Morgan’s actions as the spark motivating her to compete in the upcoming Battle Royale. She expressed her wish for “another moment” to prove herself, acknowledging the high caliber of female talent taking part as footage of several female superstars was shown. Bella also asserted her intention to earn a title shot at WWE’s next major event.
“I want the opportunity to win that title. I want to show that I’m not scared of the challenges ahead,” Bella said. “You don’t run from your past—you confront it, learn from it, and build a future that no one can take away.”
Bella concluded her message by expressing her drive to make history at Evolution and demonstrating to the WWE Universe why she is truly “fearless.”
Bella’s recent WWE return has faced hurdles. She was set to team up with her sister Brie Bella to face Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez in a tag team match in Atlanta, but Morgan’s shoulder injury canceled those plans. As of now, Nikki Bella, Ivy Nile, and Stephanie Verker are confirmed participants for Sunday’s Battle Royale.
Fan Take: Nikki Bella’s unpredictably eventful comeback keeps fans on their toes, blending nostalgia with fresh competition in WWE’s evolving women’s division. This news highlights the resilience and determination that make professional wrestling compelling, promising exciting moments ahead for both Bella and the sport.
