Nikki Bella has revealed two clear ambitions for the remainder of her WWE career — she wants to turn heel as soon as possible, and she has her eye on a General Manager role when her in-ring days are behind her. Speaking on the Nikki & Brie Show while recovering from her ankle injury, Bella was refreshingly candid about both her character preferences and her longer-term aspirations within the company.
“Look, I’d love to be heel Nikki. I thrive being heel Nikki. I don’t write creative. Heel Nikki is the best. I pitch for it — hopefully that is what I can be. Hopefully that is what I end with. I miss the days of Team Bella just doing crazy stuff. Dumping milkshakes on Brie’s head, spray painting Paige, just doing all that kind of stuff. I loved that kind of heel work. Cutting ruthless promos where my opponent and I knew we could get a little personal and no feelings were hurt,” Bella said.

On the subject of a post-in-ring future, Bella described a specific vision prompted by fan conversation on social media. “There was a lot of talk about it on X — should they change the general managers? I would love to be a general manager at one point. After in-ring stuff, I’d love at some point to be a general manager for Raw. When I saw all that talk, and someone put me as the GM for Raw, I was like, I like that, I actually like that.” Bella is currently recovering from a fractured, torn, and sprained ankle that prevented her from competing at WrestleMania 42, with her contracted WWE run expected to continue through early 2028 alongside twin sister Brie.
