Brie Bella says she is not close to a WWE return, but she has used her recovery time to think ahead about what her comeback will look like. The WWE Hall of Famer gave an update on her broken scapula after undergoing a new CT scan, and separately revealed she is considering changes to both her gear and her on-screen character before she steps back into a WWE ring.
Speaking on The Nikki & Brie Show, Brie Bella explained where things currently stand with her recovery, noting that the new scan is helping clarify the next stage of her healing process. According to Ringside News, she described this as her biggest update yet on the injury, though she stopped short of offering any timeline for stepping back into competition.
In a separate episode of the same podcast, Brie Bella said that during her layoff she has had time to think about reinventing elements of her presentation, telling listeners she is weighing a different look and character direction for whenever she does make her way back to WWE. She did not detail specifics of what that change might entail.
Taken together, the two updates paint a picture of a wrestler who is still firmly in recovery mode from a broken scapula, but who is already using the downtime to plan creatively for her eventual comeback. No official word has come from WWE on a return date for Brie Bella.
