Nikki Bella Details Injury That Led To Change In WWE WrestleMania 42 Plans

Nikki explained that her ankle was taped up tight during “WWE Raw” at MSG, and she was asked if she was able to do a walk-in, rather than a run-in, during the Women’s Tag Team Championship match. She said when she got to back and the tape was cut off, which was insanely painful; suddenly she was told she needed an MRI the following day.

“Then I get the call, and sometimes calls aren’t that quick after an MRI, so when I saw one of our doctors calling, I was like, ‘Oh gosh,'” Nikki explained. “I answer and they’re like, ‘Don’t know how you managed to do all of it.’ They just broke it down to me that I tore, sprained, and fractured my ankle.”

Nikki said that missing the WrestleMania four-way match for the women’s tag titles was hard in the moment. She said The Bellas aren’t in their 30s with many more moments left in their wrestling careers, and she doesn’t think a WrestleMania moment is going to come around for her.

“I get that I’ll probably have my last WrestleMania next year in Saudi, maybe, but other than that, that’ll be it for me,” Nikki said. “This would have been my last WrestleMania moment to share with family members… I’ve worked really hard the last year and a half. I haven’t complained. I’ve done what I’ve been told… I’ve been very okay taking a step back and helping out and not b******* about it. This was my moment that I worked really hard for this past year and a half. So for that to all go away is extremely hard.”
