Nikki Bella has teased a return to the ring, but now she's hinting at a return behind the scenes.
Nikki hasn't wrestled on WWE television since WWE Evolution when she lost to Ronda Rousey in the main event. She did a live tour with WWE in November 2018 before retiring.
While she's hinted at an in-ring return alongside her sister Brie in past months, she told Ashley Graham on Pretty Big Deal in December that she wouldn't mind helping out on the WWE creative team.
"Brie's husband [Daniel Bryan] is part of the creative team and works a lot with Vince McMahon on the creative stuff. I've always thought, in the back of my head, 'I would really like to do that for the women.' I've lived it as a WWE superstar, but I'm also a fan. I know what the people and I know how to get the best out of each woman because I know them. It'd be a lot of fun to be on creative," she said.
Brie added, "What's cool is, my husband works with well-trained writers who come from TV shows and done great. With their writing skills and my husband's wrestling ability and experience, they come up with great stuff. They'll come up with a good idea and my husband will be like, 'as a babyface, it's hard to make that happen.'"
Daniel Bryan has been pitching ideas for WWE SmackDown in recent months and is considered part of the creative team. He is reportedly pushing for NXT talent to be called up to the show.
