By hinting at a possible “Divas Takeover” in WWE and the prospect of a dream match with one of the organization’s current Women’s Champions, former WWE Superstar Nikki Bella has caused a great deal of excitement in the wrestling community.
A Return of the Divas Era?
Nikki Bella recently hinted to the possibility of a WWE comeback with some of the most recognizable ladies from the Divas Era in an interview and social media discussions.
The prospect of a “Divas Takeover” has fans in a frenzy, wondering who past celebrities might make a comeback and how they would fare in the changing women’s division of today.
Before the Women’s Evolution period took over, Nikki, a two-time WWE Divas Champion, was a pivotal role in the late 2000s and early 2010s, helping to popularize the women’s division. Her in-ring exploits and success on reality TV with Total Divas and Total Bellas made her and her sister Brie Bella famous.
Now that WWE is embracing a blend of current superstars and historical icons, a possible comeback might significantly alter the landscape.
Nikki Bella vs. a Current Champion?
The idea of a dream match versus a current WWE Women’s Champion is among the most talked-about topics from Nikki’s most recent remarks. Although she did not name a specific opponent, many fans think she might be referring to either IYO SKY, the current WWE Women’s Champion, or Rhea Ripley, the dominant Women’s World Champion.

Given that Ripley has established herself as one of WWE’s most formidable female rivals, a matchup with her would be an intriguing cross-generational encounter. However, taking against IYO SKY would be an exciting stylistic contrast, matching the Japanese star’s high-flying, technical skill with Nikki’s hard-hitting technique.
Could a Divas Takeover Actually Happen?
With WWE routinely bringing back icons for special events, the thought of a “Divas Takeover” is not out of the question. A full-scale comeback of several Divas may be a novel twist to bring nostalgia to WWE’s current scene, as former WWE Superstars like Michelle McCool, Melina, and Victoria have made unexpected debuts in recent years.
If Nikki Bella truly steps back into the ring, it would mark her first match in WWE since 2018, when she main-evented Evolution against Ronda Rousey.
Fans would want to see Nikki Bella mix it up with today’s best women’s wrestlers, but whether it’s a one-time cameo or something more, one thing is for sure: her influence in the WWE is still very much alive and well.
