The WWE Hall of Famer said,<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>\u201cThe ankle\u2019s doing great. I used to be really fired up because this morning I got to squat for the primary time\u2014not too heavy. Looked slightly bit like a baby deer.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>\u201cBut last week I got to maneuver up a level in my PT, where I could start specializing in strengthening. So working with my trainer and my PT, loads of our focus is on strengthening, in addition to constructing the ankle and all of the little mechanics that include the toes, the feet, the hips, the knees\u2014every thing.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>\u201cI\u2019ll get X-rayed in the course of June and see how the bones have grown. So fingers crossed I\u2019ll get amazing news, after which I\u2019ve just got to match that with strength, after which I\u2019ll be back.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>\u201cInjuries are so funny\u2014I at all times attempt to ask, like, when can I come back? And so they\u2019re like, \u2018Not until we see what your ankle looks like in June.\u2019 And I\u2019m like, \u2018But for those who needed to guess?\u2019 And so they\u2019re like, \u2018We don\u2019t know\u2014not until June.\u2019 That\u2019s the way it is coping with doctors.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>\u201cSo in my head, the top of June can be incredible. But I also don\u2019t want to come back back too early, because a giant reason people get reinjured is that their strength doesn\u2019t match their recovery. So I want to ensure that the calf, the quads, the glutes\u2014all of it\u2014is built up properly so it protects that ankle.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Nikki Bella talks WWE return to action, Ronda Rousey and the Phildelphia Eagles\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qZ7Aw0aYO94?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nikki Bella has been out of motion because of an ankle injury.
