• WWE Might Be Preparing To Bring Vince McMahon Back For One Night, Says Hall of Famer
Vince McMahon’s return to the spotlight has some in the wrestling world wondering if it’s only the beginning – and Bully Ray thinks it could lead to a big moment at John Cena’s farewell. The WWE Hall of Famer shared his thoughts on Busted Open After Dark, after catching McMahon’s appearance in “TMZ Presents: The Real Hulk Hogan” documentary this past Tuesday, his first significant interview since stepping away from WWE in early 2024. For Bully, the sight of Vince again was more than just nostalgia – it was a reminder of the respect McMahon had always shown him and D-Von Dudley, both in and out of the ring.
That cameo, along with McMahon being briefly featured in WWE’s recent Hogan tribute package, struck Bully as more than coincidence. He sees it as a calculated move, perhaps a soft reintroduction for a man who was once the most prominent on-screen authority figure in wrestling. In fact, Bully even mused about the “Mr. McMahon” character resurfacing, calling him one of the greatest antagonists the business has ever seen.
From there, a listener’s suggestion sent the conversation in a different direction: what if McMahon appeared at John Cena’s final match this December? Bully didn’t just agree – he championed the idea, arguing that the man who gave Cena his start deserves to be part of the send-off. In his eyes, it could create a moment so steeped in history that fans might set aside their feelings about McMahon’s real-life controversies, if only for a few minutes.
Bully believes WWE and TKO would be wise to watch how audiences react to Vince’s public appearances, just as they likely monitored the online buzz after the Hogan-TMZ documentary aired. Wrestling, he reminded listeners, is a business built on timing and perception – and if the crowd embraces McMahon now, the company may be tempted to roll the dice on bringing him back for one more emotional chapter.
• Nikki Bella Introduces “No Prom Pose” Policy: It looks like I’m getting pounded!
Nikki Bella has addressed the viral “prom pose” photo she took with a fan during WWE SummerSlam 2025 weekend. On their podcast, Brie Bella brought it up first: “So, you know that photo that went viral with you and the fan from Fanatics?” Nikki responded with a laugh: “Where it looks like I’m getting pounded from behind? Is that even appropriate to say?”
The fan in the photo was identified as Brian Lema, and Brie admitted her initial reaction was pure shock when she saw the image online. “Did Nikki let someone just hold her that tight from behind?” she recalled thinking.
Nikki explained that Lema had politely asked for a prom-style pose and that she’s agreed to similar requests in the past. “I’ve done it a bunch of times. You guys, I didn’t feel anything. It never felt inappropriate. It didn’t feel like what the photo looks like,” she said.
Brie jokingly asked, “Yeah, so, you just said a pelvic thrust right when they said ‘3, 2, 1’?”
Nikki said the fan’s posture and her baggy pants might have created the illusion, adding that the photo didn’t reflect the respectful nature of the interaction. “Because if I ever felt it was inappropriate, I would go straight to my rep and say, ‘Hey, that was really inappropriate.’ I didn’t have that at all. And he was actually – unless I’m being played – a very sweet guy with a really touching story. He’s watched us from day one.”
Even so, Nikki admitted that after seeing the reaction online, “there’s going to have to be a no prom pose rule” moving forward.
