WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella made a surprise return during the women’s Royal Rumble match at the Royal Rumble event last Saturday as the entry 30. She survived until the final four before getting eliminated by Nia Jax. She also registered an elimination by her name as she was responsible for the elimination of Bayley who was the winner of last year’s women’s Royal Rumble match.
Bella was one of the biggest names of the Divas Era of WWE. Having won the WWE Divas Championship a couple of times, she is also recognized as the longest reigning Divas Champion in WWE history. The Divas Era was quite different from nowadays and it was officially over after WrestleMania 32.

Some of the wrestlers from the Divas Era are still active in WWE right now. Natalya was a big attraction of the Divas Era and is still active in WWE, Charlotte Flair is also recognized as the final Divas Champion. Naomi also started her journey during the Divas Era. Nikki Bella also made her return at Royal Rumble and is rumored to work regularly. Bella recently spoke on Nikki & Brie Show where she discussed a potential Divas Takeover in the modern era;
Nikki Bella is the longest reigning WWE Divas Champion
“I’ve been loving the Total Divas love. This is what’s so fun, and I truly hope we do something with it because all of the girls that are there now—the newer ones, even some that were Total Divas fans—have talked a lot about it. So many of the girls are Total Divas fans.

“When I see some of my Total Divas there, I’m like, ‘Okay, there’s something we need to do here.’ Even seeing all the fans online getting really excited about a Total Divas reunion and talking about Total Divas—it’s funny because Nattie, Trin, and I kept singing the song.” Concluded the WWE hall of Famer.
A Divas invasion angle on the present day women’s division would be an excellent storyline. The modern day women’s wrestling in WWE is considered the best ever time period for women and the ‘Divas’ of WWE invading to prove their supremacy would be the perfect storyline. Since a legend like Bella speaking about it, such an angle is definitely possible.
