Additionally, WWE highlighted Penta with a sizzle reel showcasing his RAW appearances, emphasizing his potential and strong social media engagement.
While he has previously wrestled in the United States, the company reportedly sees something special in him.

• WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella attended the RAW on Netflix premiere in Los Angeles, walking the red carpet ahead of the event.
A two-time WWE Divas Champion, Bella was a prominent figure in WWE during the Divas Era and starred in reality shows like Total Divas and Total Bellas alongside her twin sister.
When asked about a potential WWE return, Nikki teased, “Will we ever see The Bella Twins back? Good question. I just may be here looking at my competition soon, so stay tuned.”
WrestleVotes later reported that the possibility of Nikki coming out of retirement is very real and could happen soon:
“We’re told significant discussions have taken place regarding a Nikki Bella return to action, with the strong expectation from multiple WWE sources that it will happen sooner rather than later.”
During a new interview with US Magazine, Nikki teased an in-ring return once again:
“I’ve missed it for quite a few years; I miss being Nikki Bella; I miss being around that family; I definitely miss being in that ring. When they put me in the crowd that night and to feel the energy and see the Bella Army, whether they were in the crowd or online, it starts to give you these feels.
Going home to WWE, I don’t think people understand, I started at 22. That’s all I ever knew up until a little bit ago. So, that’s been the biggest home for me and to go back and be home and the environment there is so incredible.
The women were just, what a great locker room. They were just so awesome and together and one and unity and everyone back there was just so happy. You could tell the energy there right now is just incredible.
I’m like, ‘This is why we paved roads in this industry.’ I feel so blessed to go back and experience it. I’m like, ‘Okay, I think I need to experience this more.’ I really love it. I feel like I’ve still got it, so we’ll see.”
Nikki finalized her divorce from Artem Chigvintsev in November. The split followed Chigvintsev’s August arrest for domestic violence, though charges were dropped in September due to insufficient evidence.
She last competed in 2022, during the Women’s Royal Rumble match. Her last singles match took place in 2018.
