Nikki Bella Says She Wanted AJ Lee At WWE Evolution
While they may not have gotten along while they worked together, Nikki Bella says she wanted AJ Lee to be booked for Evolution. WWE is bringing back Trish Stratus and Lita for the event but the rest of the show focuses on currently active WWE Superstars.
Nikki made the comments recently in Chicago as part of the ACE Comic Con convention. The twins were taking part in a Q&A session moderated by Lillian Garcia when she made the comments.
“I was actually hoping (AJ Lee) was going to be at Evolution,” Nikki said when AJ’s name was brought up. “She was a huge part of the Women’s division and if she came back, I would totally love to [wrestle her]. We had good chemistry. I really loved when Paige and AJ and Brie and I had a really good story going for a long time. I felt like that really helped with the evolution, [to] where it’s at today. So, it would be so fun.”
Nikki and AJ Lee are the two greatest Divas Champions in WWE history. Aj held the title 3x and held it for a combined 406 days (1st all time). Nikki held the title twice and held it for a combined 307 days (2nd all-time). Her 301-day title reign from 2014-15 was the longest in the title’s lineage.
