Meanwhile, Nikki Bella was also shown on the camera during the show. She received a huge pop from the audience in the arena. The legend also stole the spotlight from everyone else as she drew massive numbers on WWE's social media.

Since her appearance on the red brand, rumors have started circling on social media about her potential in-ring return. Some reports suggested that Nikki Bella was in talks with WWE for her comeback and a deal could be finalized soon.

However, the former Divas Champion has now broken her silence on her potential in-ring return during her interview with US Weekly. Nikki said she missed being on WWE TV and performing inside the squared circle.

The Hall of Famer also mentioned that she felt amazing after seeing the crowd's reaction during her appearance on RAW's Netflix debut.

"I feel like I’ve still got this. 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," she said. [H/T - US Weekly]
