Brie Bella says she returned to WWE in order to challenge herself and get out of her comfort zone. Brie returned to WWE at the Royal Rumble, joining her sister Nikki back in the company. It was Brie’s first return to the company since 2018.
The two are now chasing the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships and will compete for the titles at WrestleMania 42. They appeared on Live with Kelly & Mark to promote the show, and you can see some highlights below:
On Her Return to WWE:
“Well, I feel like as a wrestler, you always miss the ring. And seeing Nikki back in it for the last year, I really just got the itch. And I was like, ‘Gosh, I just–‘ Being 42 and with the kids, because my kids have never seen me wrestle. Literally every day, my son would be like, ‘You’re not as cool as [Nikki]. She wrestles.’ So I just think I — you know, I just missed it. I missed it so much, challenging myself. I wanted to get out of my comfort zone.
On the Women’s Tag Team Titles:
“And also, the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles are here. The division’s hotter than it’s ever been. I’m like, ‘Nikki, we’re like the original tag team. We’ve never been champions. We gotta do this.”
