The Bella twins have signed a two-year contract with WWE that they say will mark their final in-ring run.
Nikki and Brie revealed the new deals on their podcast. The terms began at the 2026 Royal Rumble, and they plan to retire when the contracts expire.
Speaking on The Nikki & Brie Show, Nikki explained their timeline and her desire for a definitive conclusion.
We signed a two-year deal starting at the Royal Rumble. From the talks you and I have had, I know that’s it, that will be the end for us.
I need that closure on things, so I’d love to put my kicks, snapbacks, and jersey in the ring and get that final bow.
I want to have a lot of fun, but I want to have like an iconic moment where it’s like, I can look back and go, “Damn, that was a great two years. We did it.” I don’t want to walk away with any what-ifs. I want to look back at the two years that we’re about to create and be like, “Damn girl, we did it.”
Nikki returned to the company at the 2025 Royal Rumble and made sporadic appearances afterward. Brie followed one year later at the 2026 event. The duo returned to television during an appearance at SmackDown last week in Phoenix, Arizona.
The WWE Hall of Famers are due to challenge Nia Jax and Lash Legend for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship on tomorrow’s episode of SmackDown in Raleigh, North Carolina.
