Nikki Bella Unsure About WrestleMania Status Following Recent Injury
Nikki Bella doesn't know if she will be missing WrestleMania.
WWE had confirmed recently that the Hall of Famer suffered an injury during the Bella Twins' match with Alexa Bliss & Charlotte Flair on the March 27 SmackDown. Though the company had only said that she was undergoing rehab and they had not confirmed if it could affect her status for the Show of Shows.
The former Divas Champion addressed her health during the sisters' recent interview with Angie Martinez. Nikki Bella agreed that it was not the ideal time for her to get injured, and at first, she thought that she had broken her ankle. As things stand, the wrestling veteran believes it to be a sprained ankle, but she doesn't know the severity of the injury:
"In our match on Friday, so, it was our second tag match back together and it happened right in the beginning of the match and I finished the match. I can’t believe I finished the match and I stressed out my poor sister. I’ve been super bummed out about it, so, as of now, it’s a sprained ankle. We don’t know if it’s a high sprain or something else so, I got an MRI, I’m waiting for the results."
The Bella Twins, along with Bayley & Lyra Valkyria and Charlotte Flair & Alexa Bliss, are set to challenge The Irresistible Forces for the Women's Tag Title at Night 1 of WrestleMania 42. We are likely to get a better idea about Nikki's status for the Show of Shows on tonight's SmackDown.
