Former Total Divas stars,
Nikki Bella and Naomi push for the show's comeback, but it seems that
WWE is not onboard with the idea.
WWE experienced the start of the Women's Revolution in the mid-2010s. However, before that happened, a top reality series featuring the female WWE superstars was taking over reality TV. The show was known as Total Divas and showcased the lives of superstars inside and outside the squared circle. The show went off the air on December 10, 2019. However, Nikki Bella and Naomi, who were a part of the starcast, expressed interest in having the show back, but there has been an update that WWE is not interested.
What is WWE's opinion regarding a Total Divas reboot?
A wave of speculations began on social media regarding the return of Total Divas to television. However, a report by Fightful Select stated, "
There is no Total Divas reboot in the works. The ‘AmberLeila’ or ‘ANX’ account on Twitter is a complete fraud. Please do not send us their posts as news tips."Despite the rumors of being shut down, former cast members Naomi and Nikki Bella expressed their desire to see the show's return. In a recent interview with Casual Conversations, the GLOW pitched a different idea if the show makes its return while reflecting back on her time. She said,
“It was great to document us in the early days. Now, it would be incredible to see the new generation at the start of their careers.”On an edition of the Nikki and Brie Show, Nikki Bella revealed that she had been asked about the return of Total Divas all the time and was onboard for a reboot of the show. The Fearless One said,
“I really, honestly, think… I get asked about it all the time. I really think there is something about all of us getting rebooted. Our OG crew with maybe two new ones. Us three, Nattie, Paige, and Nia. We’re all still working, then we bring in two new ones. So much has happened. It’s like the ‘Sex and The City’ reboot, ‘And Just Like That.’ We could have our Total Divas And Just Like That moment.”While WWE reportedly has no plans to bring Total Divas back anytime soon, it will be interesting to see if they will change their opinion in the future.
