Summary

The Bella Twins said they have specific women’s tag teams in mind following their full-time return to WWE.

Brie Bella pointed to Lash Legend and Nia Jax, who she said had just won the tag team championship, while Nikki Bella named Bayley and Lyra Valkyria, and Brie also named The Kabuki Warriors.

The duo said they have returned full time after Brie’s surprise appearance in the 2026 Women’s Royal Rumble and are now targeting the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships.

Bella Twins return puts immediate pressure on WWE women’s tag title scene

The Bella Twins publicly naming multiple established teams creates instant direction for their comeback run, because they are not positioning themselves as a nostalgia act and are directly chasing the current championship picture.

Their comments also underline confidence in the current division depth, which suggests WWE can run several high-profile women’s tag programs at once if this return remains active.
