Nikki Bella Return WWE Rumors: 'Fearless' Star Working Out With Bayley For In-Ring Return [VIDEO]

Nikki Bella appears to have been cleared for mild contact in the ring.

The former longest-reigning Divas Champion of all time has been working her way back from a neck injury, but she appears to be very close to a return. Bella was injured last October and went under the knife in January to repair her neck.

Bella has been aiming for a summer return and appears to be on the right track to an in-ring comeback.

The "Fearless" WWE Superstar posted a video on Instagram of her working out in the ring at the WWE Performance Center in Orlando with NXT star Bayley, who teamed with Sasha Banks at Battleground against Charlotte and Dana Brooke in her main roster debut.

Bella will come back to a very different WWE as the Women's Championship has taken over for the Divas Championship and there are new ladies on the roster from NXT such as Alexa Bliss, Nia Jax and Carmella.

Banks is the new Women's Champion, having defeated Charlotte on this week's episode of "RAW" to pick up the title. Bella has plenty of history with Charlotte, who ended her 301-day reign as Divas Champion last September.

"SmackDown Live" also has plenty of ladies on its roster and may very well resurrect the Divas Championship or bring about some other title to have them compete over.

John Cena, Bella's real-life boyfriend, was drafted to the Blue Brand as well by commissioner Shane McMahon and his general manager, Bella's brother-in-law Daniel Bryan, so she may want to end up on that show.

There has been no indication of where injured star's who missed last Tuesday's draft will end up when they return.

Cena and Bella have bene together for nearly four years, but the face of the WWE has balked on taking the next step of marriage and kids with his girlfriend up to this point.

"I just have things I need to get done," Cena recently told Rolling Stone in May.. "It's not negotiable. We've been to therapy over it. I don't think it will ever be over with. I'm stubborn as f--k and extremely selfish as well. I don't want kids, I don't want marriage. That's me just saying, 'Hey, this is my life and this is how I'm going to live.'"
