A highly anticipated Nikki Bella dream match WWE Raw encounter has been confirmed for the July 14th episode, thrilling fans eager to see two of WWE’s most celebrated stars face off. This announcement comes after the recent Evolution PLE event, where Hall of Famer Nikki Bella made a memorable return during the Women’s Battle Royal and immediately set the stage for a showdown against former Women’s United States Champion Chelsea Green.
General Manager Adam Pearce officially revealed the match on Raw, sparking excitement across the wrestling community. Chelsea Green responded on social media, initially reacting with surprise and reluctance before embracing the challenge.
Chelsea Green’s Reaction to the Match Announcement
Following the match confirmation, Chelsea Green expressed her initial shock on X (formerly Twitter), stating,
“I did NOT agree to this!!!!!!!!!” —Chelsea Green
However, Green soon shifted her tone to readiness and enthusiasm, tweeting,
“THIS WILL FEEEED FAMILIES” —Chelsea Green
This passionate response highlights her determination to make the encounter a memorable contest, increasing anticipation among WWE fans.
Background: Chelsea Green’s Previous Desire to Face Nikki Bella
This match fulfills a long-standing wish Chelsea Green expressed earlier in 2025. In March, shortly after Nikki Bella’s return at the Royal Rumble, Green spoke with Adrian Hernandez of Unlikely at the Pennzoil 400 race about her dream match scenario against Bella.
“The outcome is obviously gonna be I win and continue to be the greatest-ever, longest-reigning Women’s United States Champion. But I think, I’ve put a lot of thought into this in the past couple of weeks. We’re on the road to WrestleMania this month. I’m thinking my ideal match would be myself versus Nikki Bella in a Hair versus Hair match. That part is crazy. That part is a dream. The Hair versus Hair match, that one’s a dream. But me versus Nikki Bella, I love Nikki, I grew up watching Nikki. She came back at the Royal Rumble. I think this could be the perfect time for her to really sink her teeth into a feud and have a singles match.” —Chelsea Green
Her comments revealed not only admiration for Nikki Bella but also deep thought about how their matchup could become a defining moment on the road to WrestleMania.
The Significance of This Dream Match on WWE Raw
This upcoming bout marks an important milestone in both women’s careers, especially in the context of Nikki Bella’s ongoing WWE comeback. Facing Chelsea Green—a determined former champion who has openly dreamed of locking horns with Nikki—adds layers of competitiveness and storytelling to the event. Fans can expect an intense contest that could potentially launch a new rivalry or deepen Nikki’s presence in current storylines.
With Adam Pearce orchestrating the match and both competitors expressing clear passion and commitment, the episode of Raw promises to deliver one of the most talked-about events of the summer. Chelsea Green’s fiery social media statements and Nikki Bella’s high-profile return underscore the importance and excitement surrounding this showdown.
