Maybe in a backstage capacity or a very limited on screen role, but as full time performers? No thanks. They were channel changers for me back in the day.

Now that they're officially done with WWE, they're going back to their real last name of Garcia professionally. If your gonna go through the trouble of changing it then just quote me...my statement was simply that Nikki and Brie Bella sells a lot more than Nikki and Brie Garcia especially if it's exactly the same character.

I just did a quick copy-and paste of your post word-for-word. No need to be snippy.

I can’t wait for the “I wasn’t given any chances” promo by these two of all people.

It didn't sound like Nikki was going to get back in the ring ever, so probably not...
However, I can't help but assume they're the reason that there's been a little spike of sister tag teams on the indies, so if they show up for a legends bit to acknowledge they inspired some of the current generation of women's wrestlers? I'd like that. I dout it would be well received, though.

You can replace Riho with Rebel! Rebel makes Brie look like her husband by comparison, so let's not. It took me a moment to realize you meant in terms of wrestling skill and not physical attractiveness and I was confused (Even though Rebel IS easy on the eyes, she doesn't make Brie look like that goat faced gent)

Eh, I'm fine with them coming in but they shouldn't get a super push or anything either. Brie is outright bad and I guess it depends on how Nikki's neck is doing.
Regardless I don't see them coming in...but if they were to this section would probably be insane in the membrane.

They've already been backstage so by the talent I would say yes
By the fans? I would have to say it'd be a mixed bag at best. They aren't particularly needed and in terms of wrestling ability I'd rather they hire Mel back lmfao

Them with Paige would be way better than Toni and Ruby.

That's obviously hyperbolic as hell, but eh, not worth getting upset over. Still, probably should have specified North American women's wrestler, and even that's obviously something of a stretch, and I say that as someone who thinks the Bellas, particularly Nikki, do occupy a place in wrestling history worth acknowledging, since like it or don't, Total Divas was a game changer.

Nikki physically can't wrestle, Brie's terrible/has nearly killed herself and others botching, and they both act like entitled brats, so f*** no.

AEW the wrestling show probably no, but TBS the channel could be interested

Man uh...this is definitely a tweet. Especially since I know there are several women in WWE who weren't inspired by the Bellas at all. Hell, Iyo Sky/Io Shirai has 16 years of in ring experience, which is longer than the Bellas have been a thing. Dakota Kai has 15, and Bayley has 14. As for them being welcome in AEW, it would likely give them a small boost in viewership, but if they were unhappy about how the women were handled in WWE, then they are gonna absolutely go insane in AEW when they realize the women get even less time there.

Is Nikki actually cleared to wrestle though? I know she's had her issues in the past with her neck.
Can't say i've ever been a fan of either and i feel there are other, newer wrestlers who deserve the attention.

Can't say i've ever been a fan of either and i feel there are other, newer wrestlers who deserve the attention. Pretty sure she's cleared. They mentioned awhile back how they wanted a women's tag title run, but it never panned out because they had other obligations, which messed up A LOT of creative plans. I guess they were supposed to come back and win the tag titles from the IIconics, but they pulled out, which resulted in Vince having KAIRI get called up from NXT to form the Kabuki Warriors. Which resulted in Triple H having to pivot away from his original plan for KAIRI in NXT, which was a long term feud with Io/Iyo (as Iyo was originally supposed to turn heel on Kairi, not Candice).
