Nikki Bella wants to take the Traitors drama from the Scottish Highlands straight into the squared circle.
Bella, 41, who appeared on season 3 of the Peacock reality series, invited a certain costar and former Real Housewives of Potomac cast member to meet her in her WWE stomping grounds.
“I think it would be amazing to take on Robyn Dixon,” Bella exclusively told Us Weekly after making her surprise in-ring return at the WWE Royal Rumble on Saturday, February 1. “She is athletic and she of course would have her Housewives managing her ringside like Dorinda [Medley], Dolores [Catania] and Chanel [Ayan].”
Medley, Catania and Ayan were also part of The Traitors season 3 cast.
Bella added, “Can you imagine the chaos the Housewives would cause? I love it!”
After retiring from full-time wrestling action in 2019, Bella made her return to the ring on Saturday as the No. 30 entrant in the women’s Royal Rumble match — and she hinted fans might want to get used to seeing her around.
“It felt so good!” Bella said of the match. “Just even the little bit I did confirmed what I have been yearning for for so long. Not just a one off, but an actual return to the WWE ring.”
As for what comes next, Bella said, “You’ll just have to stay tuned.”
After the Rumble appearance, Bella boasted she felt “mentally even stronger” than ever before.
“Physically, I’m almost there,” she added. “What’s beautiful about our bodies is that in whatever era of life we are in, we can adapt and still deliver an incredible performance. Being a mom and what I put my body through is incredibly empowering and that’s what I will be bringing to the ring.”
Bella welcomed her son, Matteo, in July 2020 with her ex-husband Artem Chigvintsev.
In addition, Bella expressed hope that her twin sister, Brie Bella — who shares daughter Birdie, 7, and son Buddy, 4, with husband Bryan Danielson — will join her inside the ring again at some point.
“I really hope she will,” Nikki said. “It’s so much better and more fun with her. We have so much fun in that ring together. Would love to do a tag team run with my Brie Mode!”
In a cover story interview with Us prior to the Royal Rumble, Nikki explained she’s “excited to just live this new era of me.”
“I have days where I get to focus a lot on me, and self care and just really get to know who I am in my 40s and where I want to go,” Nikki said. “I feel like I have this whole new era to look at and I get to choose how I want to be and take it. It’s really cool, especially on top of it being a mom.”
