• “I’m gonna find that stooge” – WWE Star On Paige’s Return Being Spoiled

Nikki Bella was pulled from the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship match at WrestleMania 42 after suffering an ankle injury that required surgery, leading to her replacement on the card.

Paige made her return at the Grandest Stage of Them All and went on to win the Women’s Tag Team Titles alongside Brie Bella. PWInsider had reported a day before WrestleMania 42 – Night 1 that Paige had signed a multi-year deal with WWE and would be part of the match, effectively spoiling the surprise ahead of time.

On the latest episode of The Nikki & Brie Show, Brie Bella expressed frustration over the leak and warned that she intends to find out who was responsible.

“The Paige stuff got leaked from a stooge. I’m gonna find out who saw us probably earlier in the week. Just let things be special and a secret. Who runs and tells people… It’s sad. So look yourself in the mirror and really think about what you do next time. I’m gonna find that stooge though because I remember everyone who was around.”

• Stephanie McMahon Reacts To Goldberg Calling Triple H A “Jacka$$”

In July 2025, WWE Hall of Famer Bill Goldberg lost to GUNTHER in his retirement match at Saturday Night’s Main Event. Following the bout, Goldberg was delivering a farewell speech when it was abruptly cut short, something he later took issue with publicly, saying it showed disrespect.

He later addressed it during a meet and greet, where a fan asked if Triple H was the “jacka$$” behind his speech being cut short. Goldberg initially said “probably” before doubling down when it was brought up again, agreeing with the sentiment by saying “100%.”

The comments resurfaced during WrestleMania 42 weekend when Stephanie McMahon was asked about Goldberg’s remarks by a fan during a meet and greet. She initially questioned when the comments were made before brushing it off:

“When? A long time ago or recently? Well, people say a lot of things, yeah, I don’t (worry).”
