WWE NXT Spoilers For May and June
The bout was announced on SmackDown this week and Bella spoke to Eden on SmackDown Fallout and said she was "excited" for the clash against her two fellow Divas.
"I'm actually really excited," Bella said. "And I'll tell you why because at Elimination Chamber, I am going to prove to Naomi and to Paige why I am the fearless Divas Champion. You know, Naomi has officially run out of excuses why she isn't and never will be the Divas Champion. And Paige, well, what she did to me Monday night on RAW, I will prove to her at Elimination Chamber that not only will I walk out the Divas Champion, but why The Nikki Bella runs the Divas division."

Bella has been Divas Champion for 180 days here in her second reign as she's held the title since knocking off now retired Diva AJ Lee at the Survivor Series last November in St. Louis.
Paige is looking to become a three-time Divas Champion while Naomi is in search of her first title reign.
Paige and Bella have been at odds for quite awhile, but Naomi is new to the feud. Naomi attacked Paige after she won a Divas Battle Royal on RAW in her native England last month.
After turning heel, Naomi took Paige's No. 1 contender position after she was written off to write a movie and lost to Bella at Extreme Rules after Brie Bella attacked her from the outside and Nikki landed The Rack Attack for the win.
Naomi then sided with the returning Tamina to form a heel duo and they beat The Bella Twins at Payback last Sunday with Naomi picking up the pin on Nikki. Paige then returned to television on RAW to save Nikki from a beat down by the duo and she then attacked Nikki afterward.
That leads to a Triple Threat Match between the trio at Elimination Chamber on the WWE Network.
These three can also be seen on Total Divas, and E! Network revealed the show is moving to Tuesday next season.
"Returning in its fourth season, E!, WWE®and Bunim-Murray Productions continue their look inside the lives of the women of the sports entertainment giant," E! said in a statement. "Cameras once again showcase the professional and personal lives of the WWE Divas: The Bella TwinsTM(Nikki and Brie Bella), NatalyaTM (Nattie), NaomiTM, Alicia FoxTM, PaigeTM, and Eva MarieTM
Between balancing family, maintaining romantic relationships and constantly fighting for the spotlight, the Divas are up against the odds. However, their unique lifestyles bring them together in a bond of sisterhood like no other."
