Nikki Bella is currently undergoing rehabilitation after suffering an injury during last week’s episode of WWE SmackDown.

The injury occurred during a tag team match that saw Nikki team with Brie Bella against Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss. During the bout, Nikki appeared to roll her ankle and was visibly limping as the match continued.

Following the incident, Nikki was later seen wearing a walking boot during a live filming of “The Nikki and Brie Show,” which raised concerns about the severity of the injury.

WWE has now confirmed that Nikki did sustain an injury on SmackDown and stated that she is “currently undergoing some rehab” as she works toward a return.

Despite the setback, the expectation is that Nikki is aiming to be ready in time for her scheduled appearance at WrestleMania 42, where she is set to compete in a Fatal 4-Way tag team match.

Her status for the event will likely depend on how her recovery progresses in the coming days. With WrestleMania approaching, WWE appears hopeful that she will be cleared in time to participate.

WrestlingAttitude.Com will provide further updates as more information becomes available regarding Nikki Bella’s condition.

Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre made several announcements during its latest show at Arena Mexico, including a contract update and plans for an upcoming inter-promotional event.

During the event, it was confirmed that Thunder Rosa has signed a dual contract with CMLL. The announcement came while Rosa was in the ring, aligning with earlier reporting that a dual deal had been in the works.

Rosa had previously addressed the possibility in an interview, making it clear she was eager for the opportunity.

“Really you gonna ask me that question? Of course I’m interested in something like that,” Rosa said. “It’s a big deal, it is such a big deal and it’s such an honor when they recognize you to be somebody to be part of their organization. Absolutely, it would be an honor.”

In addition to the contract news, CMLL announced that it will once again collaborate with Major League Wrestling for a joint event scheduled for Friday, May 1 at Arena Mexico.

The two promotions have built a consistent working relationship in recent years. Notably, Ultimo Guerrero faced Blue Panther for the National Openweight Championship in Mexico last year as part of that partnership.

CMLL and MLW also held a similar joint show last May. Key matches from that event included Mistico defeating KUSHIDA, Guerrero capturing the National Openweight Title against Matthew Justice, and Neon facing Paul London in a bout that ended in a no contest.

With Rosa now officially part of the promotion under a dual agreement and another joint show on the horizon, CMLL continues to strengthen its collaborations and expand its roster presence.

Danhausen made a surprise appearance during the April 3 episode of WWE SmackDown, creating a chaotic sequence that impacted the Tag Team Title match.

Earlier in the night, Danhausen approached The Miz backstage and expressed interest in getting involved. Miz quickly shut the idea down, warning him to stay away from the match and clearly showing frustration with the situation.

Despite that warning, Danhausen appeared during the tag team title bout featuring Damian Priest and R-Truth against Miz and Kit Wilson. His entrance music hit mid-match, and he walked to the ring carrying his trademark teeth, immediately distracting everyone involved.

Danhausen attempted to insert himself by calling for a tag from Miz, which only added to Miz’s frustration. The referee intervened and ordered him off the apron, but the distraction had already disrupted the flow of the contest.

At one point, Danhausen tried to use his signature curse. Miz avoided it and pulled the referee into the line of fire. Moments later, the lights went out, adding another layer of confusion. When they came back on, Danhausen was seen sprinting up the aisle.

The match then quickly shifted toward its finish. Truth hit Kit Wilson with an Attitude Adjustment, but Miz responded with a Skull-Crushing Finale. However, the referee was unable to complete the count, selling the effects of Danhausen’s curse. That delay allowed Priest to capitalize, delivering South of Heaven to secure the three-count.

While Danhausen did not directly score the victory, his involvement played a key role in the outcome by throwing the match into disarray. His continued interactions with Miz suggest that this issue may carry on in the coming weeks.

Cody Rhodes has reacted to the reveal of Pat McAfee as Randy Orton’s mystery caller following the April 3 episode of WWE SmackDown.

Earlier in the show, Rhodes confronted Orton, leading to a physical altercation. The segment took a turn when McAfee made a surprise appearance, striking Rhodes with a low blow before later confirming he had been the one advising Orton in recent weeks.

Rhodes returned later in the broadcast to address the situation and did not hold back, using a notable comparison to mock the reveal.

“We all got dressed up in St. Louis tonight to find out who Randy Orton was talking to on the phone and color me surprise, it was Pat McAfee. That’s like if Scott Hall and Kevin Nash talked about the third man in the nWo and instead of Hulk Hogan, it was Disco Inferno.”

The comment referenced one of wrestling’s most famous moments, the formation of the New World Order, while taking a direct shot at McAfee’s significance in the reveal.

Rhodes’ mention of Disco Inferno also ties into past tension between the two. Years ago, Disco criticized Rhodes over an injury-related spot, prompting a sharp response from Rhodes on social media.

“Stop. You know nothing. You have drawn 0 dollars. No fan has ever left a show thinking about you. You were lucky to be a juiced up double-lifer “over with the boys” type in an era where you hid in plain sight coasting on others’ success. Couldn’t hang then, can’t get booked now.”

With WrestleMania 42 approaching, the situation continues to escalate, as Rhodes now finds himself dealing with both Orton and McAfee ahead of their anticipated showdown.
