On a recent edition of The Nikki & Brie Show, Brie Bella talked about how important Bryan Danielson has been during her current WWE run. According to Brie, the former world champion has been serving as her personal coach, pushing her to keep improving and giving her tough feedback every week.
Nikki is still recovering from an ankle injury she suffered during the Road to WrestleMania 42. The WWE Hall of Famer made it clear she plans to follow the same path as her sister once she is healthy.
“This run I’m doing, I know where I stand and how much longer I have and what it is. I don’t want to have any regrets. For me, it’s kind of been my number one priority.”
“It’s fun because I feel like people are recognizing all of the training I’m doing. Bryan is my coach and I think they are all seeing the inspiration of Bryan. He’s incredible. He’s hard on me, which I need. I love it. He gives me hard feedback every week.”
“I can’t wait to have Bryan as a coach on this comeback.”
Nikki is working with the expectation that she could return near the end of June, but she does not plan to rush the process if her ankle is not fully healed.
