Nikki Bella says she has eyes on following in the footsteps of her brother-in-law, Daniel Bryan, by joining WWE's creative team to work with Vince McMahon.

Here's what the record-breaking former Divas Champion had to say when interviewed on Ashley Graham's Pretty Big Deal podcast (h/t POST Wrestling for the transcription):-

“I mean, I would love — there’s times that — because Brie’s husband [Daniel Bryan] is a part of the creative team and works a lot with Vince McMahon on creative stuff and I’ve always thought in the back of my head like, ‘I would really like to do that for the women’ because I’ve lived it as a WWE superstar but also, I’m a fan. So it’s like, I feel like I know what the people want and then I know how to get the best out of each woman because I know them. So, it would be a lot of fun to be on creative.”

Bella's last televised WWE appearance was in February 2020, when she and sister Brie appeared on SmackDown to announce their upcoming Hall of Fame induction. Said induction is yet to go down after the ceremony was cancelled at the onset of the global health crisis.
