The wrestling stars, who are both mums — recently giving birth only 22 hours apart! — shared the exciting news with guest host Mario Lopez (who happens to be a WWE superfan) on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

The twins hinted that they would soon be returning to their wrestling careers after WWE, the peak wrestling body, announced their line-up of Wrestlemania for the next three years.

"Recently WWE made their huge announcement ... so when I heard about Dallas 2022 and Hollywood 2023 I got chills and I was like, 'Brie, we have never gone after the Tag Titles. They were like, made for us'," Nikki said of their exciting comeback.

"So I'm calling it, maybe in Dallas, WrestleMania. At some point we're coming back," she confirmed.

Brie recalled a moment in which she had been wrestling Stephanie McMahon at SummerSlam, and had an epiphany about her athletic career after seeing McMahon's children watching her match.

"I'll never forget when we came back after our match, and her three little girls were in what we call 'gorilla', which is the place before we go out into the ring," she said.

"When we came back to gorilla, to see their faces when she came through the curtain, they were like, 'Mum!' The goosebumps, the tears. They just looked at their mum like she was a superhero," the 38-year-old added.

"I really want to be able to wrestle in front of Matteo and Buddy and Birdie and come back and them look at me the same way Stephanie's daughters looked at her."

Nikki also chimed in, saying, "Nothing would be better than being in the ring and looking over at the front row and just and seeing your kids in awe of you. Especially as women, like how empowering that would be. It would be incredible."

Lopez appeared to be thrilled at the news the ladies would be returning to their wrestling careers, and asked when he could make an official celebration.

"So I feel like in two years. Let the boys be two," Brie confirmed, deciding to wait until her newborn twin sons reached the age of two to get back in the ring with her sister.
