Credit: WWE Though she was present at WrestleMania 42 , Nikki Bella remains sidelined with her ankle injury. While she's already plotting her return as an in-ring performer for later on in the 2026 TV schedule , she's also talking about her eventual retirement and how she wants to step it up and become a General Manager.
The topic came up during the latest episode of The Nikki & Brie Show , and was sparked by fans on X suggesting a GM shakeup within the organization. The Bella twin said she's seen this situation come up before, and it's a role she thinks she could thrive in. As she put it: What I love about this one: I can do this, not being in the ring.
There was a lot of talk about it on X, like, 'Should they change the general managers? ' I would love to be a general manager at one point. After the 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 actually like that! It should be noted that Nikki Bella said later in the podcast she was already shooting to return to the ring by June, so Adam Pearce and his hype videos are safe from being usurped from Monday Night Raw duties anytime soon. That said, I have to say I'm not as on board with this idea as she is, and think she'd be much better suited for another authoritative role.
