Nikki Bella worked in WWE on two separate occasions, spanning a decade of her life. She parted ways with the promotion in 2019 but continues to promote their brand as an ambassador. One-half of the Bella Twins just became part of another venture.
Bella will be a part of Nickelodeon’s ‘Slime Cup,‘ a brand-new special created by the people who brought The Match to life. Nikki Bella will join the Pink team alongside PGA winner Justin Thomas and Nick star Isaiah Crews.
The hour-long special will feature four teams as they compete on a “Nick-ified” golf course to reach an unpredictable final round taking place inside the iconic Rose Bowl stadium. Nickelodeon Slime Cup will simulcast on Saturday, June 25, at 8 p.m. (ET/PT) across Nickelodeon, TeenNick and Nicktoons.
With one-of-a-kind tee boxes, far-out fairways and greens, physical challenges, and lots of slime, the special will culminate with “The Unfairway”–the final hole where players battle it out to win the ultimate Nickelodeon Slime Cup, a Nick orange blazer and the epic honor of getting slimed.
The following teams will compete in a two-round tournament, with holes inspired by fan-favorite Nickelodeon shows.
Green Team: Professional Golfer Collin Morikawa; Actor, Host and Author Terry Crews; and Nick star Jaidyn Triplett.
Pink Team: Professional Golfer and recent PGA Championship winner Justin Thomas; WWE Superstar Nikki Bella; and Nick star Isaiah Crews.
Red Team: Professional Golfer Jon Rahm; NFL Superstar Justin Herbert; and Nick star Kate Godfrey.
Orange Team: Professional Golfer Lexi Thompson; NFL Superstar Saquon Barkley; and Nick star Tyler Wladis.
Nikki Bella is two-time WWE Divas Champion and holds the record for the longest reign with that title with 301 days. Nikki and her sister Brie were inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2021. Her show AGT: Extreme was just canned by NBC, so this will be a nice way for her to stay on television.
