This week on Raw, Stephanie McMahon made yet another historic announcement concerning the women’s division, announcing that for the first time ever, there would be a women’s Elimination Chamber match at the upcoming pay-per-view of the same name. The match, like the women’s Rumble match, had been long rumoured online and the announcement won’t have come as a surprise to many people.

The women’s roster delivered a nostalgia-filled and hugely enjoyable Royal Rumble bout and the company will be very keen to capitalise on that momentum. The important thing for them heading into the Elimination Chamber is to get the right entrants and if they can do that, then the women could really deliver a classic chamber match. Let’s take a look at who should enter the first-ever women’s elimination chamber match.

Alexa Bliss

Let’s get this one out of the way. Bliss is the current women’s champion and therefore the first confirmed entrant into the match. Is there a chance she will lose the title before the event? It seems highly unlikely, and even if she did, she would definitely be in the match regardless.  The match will be used to set up Alexa’s bout at Mania, with either Asuka coming down after the match to confirm she is going to face her, or Alexa having an altercation with someone (Nia Jax, most likely) during the match that sets up a feud.

Bliss has been an excellent champion and is an integral part of the women’s roster, having her compete in this match gives her the chance to be a part of history as, obviously, she didn’t get a chance to partake in the first ever Rumble.

Paddy Power has revealed the betting odds for the Women’s Royal Rumble match ahead of tonight’s event in Philadelphia. Asuka is still the odds on favorite to win the match, followed by Ronda Rousey. Rousey denied reports earlier this week that she would participate in the match.

Here are the top ten for the match:

Asuka: 11/8
Ronda Rousey: 6/4
Stephanie McMahon: 10/3
Becky Lynch: 6/1
Nia Jax: 6/1
Nikki Bella: 12/1
Sasha Banks: 12/1
Charlotte Flair: 14/1
Alexa Bliss: 16/1
Bayley: 16/1

Nikki Bella Talks Dancing With The Stars

On the latest episode of Lillian Garcia’s podcast, Nikki Bella opened up about some of her feelings concerning her working on Dancing With The Stars and how the show was hard on her fiancée John Cena.

“I fell in love with dance. I have not, in so many years – and this was hard on John because I was very honest with him – but I have not felt this young and, like, alive…And now I found this new passion, and I felt young and free.”

She also talked about how difficult it was for her to depend on a man during the competition.

“What was weird for me – and this was the crazy experience – since I was 15, I told myself, ‘I will never depend on a man. I will never need someone.’ And I joined this competition, and I have to depend on a man, and I have to need someone… I was feeling all these emotions, so I was bottling myself up, and I knew this could have made amazing TV for them. I didn’t want it to be forced. But I would go home at night, and there were times that I would cry.”

While speaking about her elimination from Dancing with the Stars, Nikki Bella revealed in a new YouTube video that she wants to try to do some movies after she makes a WWE comeback with her sister Brie Bella.

“I’m actually – for the first time ever – I’m thinking about that I want to do a few movies, because getting lost in a character was really fun, and I think that’s something I want to do next. But, I think I do need to make a comeback with Brie [Bella] first, at least, that’s what I want to do. So, Vince, you’re getting a call.”

As previously noted, Nikki and her sister Brie are planning to make a WWE comeback sometime next year.

After much speculation, it was announced yesterday that Nikki Bella will be joining the cast of this season’s Dancing With The Stars on ABC. WWE made the announcement yesterday.

Nikki Bella is temporarily hanging up her wrestling boots for ballroom dancing shoes as she officially joins the celebrity competitors on Season 25 of “Dancing with the Stars.”

Fearless Nikki will waltz into the ballroom with professional partner Artem Chigvintsev, who will also be dancing for his first Mirror Ball Trophy. The official cast announcement was made Wednesday on “Good Morning America.”

While Artem assured “GMA” hosts that he hasn’t experienced a Bella Buster yet, Nikki hasn’t ruled it out.

“I try to fight him every rehearsal,” Nikki joked.

The show premieres Monday, Sept. 18, at 8/7 C on ABC.

Brie Bella revealed on The Bella Twins YouTube Channel that she and the Bella Family will be in attendance for the live premiere on Sept. 18 in Hollywood.

The Season 25 celebrity cast also includes former NFL star Terrell Owens, Barbara Corcoran of “Shark Tank,” actor Frankie Muniz, and married entertainment personalities Nick and Vanessa Lachey.

The Bella Twin is the third WWE Superstar to cha-cha into the “Dancing with the Stars” ballroom. Chris Jericho competed in Season 12 in 2011 and was eliminated fifth out of 11 contestants. Stacy Keibler competed in Season 2 in 2006 and placed third.

The entire cast appeared on yesterday’s Good Morning America when the formal announcement was made.

Nikki Bella is never one to shy away from saying what’s on her mind, and during a recent interview, the longest reigning WWE Diva’s Champion voiced the opinion that Total Divas, the WWE/E! Network reality show of which Bella is now an Executive Producer, doesn’t get enough credit for helping to spark the WWE’s Women’s Revolution.

According to Bella, she thinks the show is one of the main reasons the whole movement started.

“I think [Total Divas] helped start the women’s revolution. Total Divas [led to] more women started coming to our show, like, ‘I gotta check this out.’ I remember when Brie was fighting Stephanie McMahon, so many women showed up because they were like, ‘I can’t believe she’s fighting her boss, Oh My Gosh!’ It was crazy for them to even imagine, like, ‘She’s gonna hit her? Like, This is nuts!’ and so I think Total Divas has done so much for women’s wrestling. It was the first time that we got an hour of TV to ourselves, to really showcase what women do.”

She went on to say that the show gets a bad rap, in part, due to jealousy.

“What is unfortunate is that when Total Divas was succeeding and we became a hit reality show, they let people with a mic in the ring just bash it and us Total Divas never got a response. So, with the fans, it began to give Total Divas a bad name, ‘Oh, they are just reality stars.’ Actually, while the girls who aren’t on the reality show are just wrestling, us girls on the reality show are wrestling, are filming, are never sleeping, going to appearances, making sure that the world knows how amazing women wrestlers are. So, I don’t feel Total Divas gets enough credit because the words ‘reality show’ has ruined it for people. I think certain people also, characters for the company, have ruined it as well out of pure jealousy. I’ll admit that.”

Hmmm…. Total Divas. Women’s Revolution.

Yeah, Imma just leave this here and let you all decide for yourself where the spark came from.

Bella also had the following to say about the popularity of the show and fans at WWE events wanting to see the cast of Total Divas, not the women that weren’t on the show.

“It happened so quickly and so fast. I want to say that when seasons one and two came out, both of which we were lucky in that they had 16 episodes each, after that season two….Bam! Everyone wanted to know Natalya, Brie Bella, Naomi, Ariane. Everyone was like, ‘Who are these girls?’ and when we go to events, there would be women wrestlers who weren’t on the show and were getting more TV time than us and [the fans] wouldn’t care about them. They would be, ‘I want to see those Total Divas girls. Can you bring them back?’”

Lordy mercy, I bet this is going to go over real well in the locker room. Let’s hope this was her doing this in-character, otherwise, she’s burned some bridges.

While speaking to Pop Sugar, John Cena talked about his public proposal to longtime girlfriend Nikki Bella at WrestleMania 33 earlier this year.

“I messed around with the idea months before and I guess it was just me having the guts enough to do it on that stage,” said Cena. “So many of our viewers know myself and Nicole from the WWE ring, and I’ve been in WWE for 15 years now, [so] they’re my family. WrestleMania is the one day of the year that the entire family gathers together. So, I figured it was a great way for me to tell the woman I love that she’s the one I want to spend the rest of my life in front of all the people that have followed us for all of these years.”

Cena also discussed the possibility of having his wedding ceremony with Nikki air live on WWE television.

“I’m not sure. I’m going have to divert to her on that one. She’s the boss. [Her] show is called Total Bellas, so it’s kind of about [her] life and if she decides to open up that moment to the rest of the world, I certainly support her. At the same time, if she were to decide that wants that moment just for us, I’d certainly support her with that as well.”
