Bill Simmons patted himself on the back for having Nikki Bella caught on camera shaking her hips during WWE's Raw debut on Netflix last week.
On Tuesday's “Bill Simmons Podcast,” the Ringer founder reacted to being turned into a meme while sitting ringside next to the former WWE Hall of Famer and simply trying to enjoy the show.
“Everyone in my life felt like I handled it perfectly.” Simmons, 55, says. When my cousin Sal, who was a guest on my podcast, brought up “your Netflix cameo” in WWE.
“I thought that was a great response, man!'' said the monkey.
Simmons handled the moment calmly.
Bella looked stunning in a red leather outfit, shaking her hips and performing a sensual dance. This was part of her signature WWE entrance alongside her twin sister Brie Bella.
Simmons looked up, grinned, then focused straight ahead toward the ring at a packed Intuit Dome in Los Angeles, home of the Clippers.
The event was the highest grossing WWE Arena event in history.
it came a year later WWE and Netflix signed a huge deal in January 2024 to bring its weekly Monday night Raw show to Netflix starting in 2025.
Netflix has also become home to WWE Raw, SmackDown, NXT, and WWE premium live events such as WrestleMania, Royal Rumble, and SummerSlam.
