Nikki Garcia and John Cena: A Surprising Reunion After 7 Years Apart!

There’s no animosity in this elimination chamber.

As a lifestyle expert reflecting on the latest developments, I can’t help but express my excitement over Nikki Garcia, better known as Nikki Bella, re-entering the wrestling scene after a month and a half. The Royal Rumble in February 2025 is going to be electrifying with her return! She recently opened up about her emotions returning to the ring and reconnecting with her ex, John Cena. Quite an interesting turn of events!

Nikki mentioned to Kristin Cavallari during her “Let’s be Honest” podcast tour stop in New York on March 13, as reported by People, that the encounter was very swift. The 41-year-old, who parted ways with John in July 2018 following six years of dating, pointed out that it has been approximately seven or eight years since they last met. “I was in a group chatting with others. He approached to greet everyone. He shook hands with me.

Nikki, who has a 4-year-old son Matteo with her former husband Artem Chigvintsev, didn’t reveal whether they exchanged words, but those close to them seemed to have a significant response to their meeting again.

As he strolled off, the girls exclaimed, “Oh my goodness!”, she went on to say. She expressed her desire to maintain some distance since John is now wed to Shay Shariatzadeh. “And that was that,” she noted, appreciating that it helped break the ice and they both happened to be at WWE again around the same time. It’s a pleasant sensation.

Nikki shared that this experience was more enjoyable compared to their encounter at the same event in 2018. Back then, she mentioned that the incident, which was featured on their old show, Total Bellas, starring her and her sister Brie Garcia, was a tough one for her. She had to maintain a strong facade for the Royal Rumble audience as it was difficult to endure.

Given all the John-related ups and downs, I’ve felt like I’ve been riding an intense emotional roller coaster, and today has been a particularly turbulent double dose. Yet, here I am, about to be part of a monumental historical moment, but my thoughts keep getting tangled in this John situation.

After reconciling with John, Nikki is now looking forward to the next phase of her life: seeking a compatible partner who can match her pace. Approaching the third month since her divorce from Artem was finalized, Nikki has expressed her disinterest in dating or mentoring younger men.

On their podcast episode from February 18th, she shared that she desires possession, saying, ‘I wish to be possessed.’ She also expressed a desire for physical intimacy by stating, ‘I long for my body to be moved.’

In my over-the-moon enthusiasm, let me tell you, there’s nothing cooler than casually dropping by an ex’s talk show and giving him a bit of friendly ribbing.

Nina and Ian apparently ended their relationship in 2013 after three years together, but they’ve continued to maintain a strong friendship since then.

Never allow anyone to make you doubt that.’ I held him in high regard because I consider him one of the greatest singers ever.
