WWE Latest News: Diva Nikki Bella Unsure About Return; Report On Numbers Upon Brock Lesnar's Return
It has been revealed that World Wrestling Entertainment Diva Nikki Bella would be out for an indefinite period of time as she heals from injury.
In a report by Pro Wrestling Sheet, Nikki last appeared during the past week's edition of Monday Night RAW, and upon an MRI examination the day after, it was revealed that the bulging discs in her neck failed to go down.
The report adds that the cause of her injury was her constant use of the "Rack Attack," which she had been using for five nights a week.

The said move, in a nutshell, is a back breaker wherein Nikki would lift her opponent perpendicularly on her shoulders. She would then drop down to the mat, putting the pressure of body weight both on her neck and her opponent's back. It had been Nikki's signature finisher.
Upon her doctor's advice, she will have to stay out of the wrestling ring for a while.
"We're told she's been instructed to continue rehab for 7 more weeks before getting another MRI — and if no progress has been made, Nikki will be forced to discuss surgery options," reads an excerpt of the Pro Wrestling Sheet report.
The report adds that doctors also advised Nikki to stop using the move when she does return to action. Through a post on the Bella Twins' Twitter account, Nikki revealed that she would only know about her immediate future by the end of January.
Meanwhile, some of the WWE's recent attendance figures have been released.
