Nikki Bella: WWE Needs To Build More Stars Overall, Especially For The Men

Nikki Bella gives her thoughts on the current state of WWE.

Nikki Bella has been back in WWE for a year, making her return in the 2025 women’s Royal Rumble. Though she wasn’t present every week following her return, she had a consistent role for the second half of the year.

Speaking to Logan Paul on Impaulsive, Nikki was asked about the current state of WWE.

“The women’s division is incredible. No offense, I think the women’s division is better than the men’s division overall. For women, it’s the best ever because of the opportunities given. We need to build more stars overall, especially for the men. Especially seeing how many are going to be retiring soon. To lose AJ Styles so quick. That was crazy sad. John is gone. You look at some of the other top stars ages and you’re like, ‘Oh wow,'” said Nikki.

Many of the top male superstars are 40 years or older, as noted by Bron Breakker in the past.
