After seeing her boyfriend return at WrestleMania 32, Nikki Bella is extra motivated to strike a comeback.
John Cena returned to the fold to help save The Rock from a Wyatt Family beat down this past Sunday at AT&T Stadium in Dallas. Cena had been teasing an appearance at the "Show of Shows" for months.
Though it's uncertain whether or not Cena has been cleared for action, he made sure that his streak of 13 straight WrestleMania appearances remained alive. Bella also made a brief cameo, celebrating with her sister Brie after her team won a 10-woman tag match on the pre-show.
Still, Bella emerged with a neck brace on, showing there is still a long road to recovery. The longest-reigning Divas Champion hasn't wresled since October and she underwent surgery on her neck back in January.
Cena had shoulder surgery the same month as Bella's procedure, but he is prone to making returns quicker than expected, as evidenced by his run-in at WrestleMania 32.
Though doctors remain pessimistic about Bella making a full-time recovery, the Diva has remained positive. Bella fired off a tweet about making "one hell of a comeback" down the line:
Getting ready to make one hell of a comeback!!! #TotalDivas #WomensWrestling #FearlessNikki https://t.co/X7A3uwXpLo

Bella is full of optimism, but it's likely she won't be ready for a full-scale return until at least the summer.
When she comes back, Bella will be heading into a very different division. The WWE finally ditched the butterfly belt and the Divas moniker by rebranding it the women's division and ushering in a brand new Women's Championship for Charlotte.
There is plenty of competition among the Divas in the likes of Sasha Banks, Naomi, Paige and others, but Bella will infuse even more talent upon her return.
